About This Artwork
Grimoire explores the transformation of knowledge into physical form through the imagery of a magical book. Part of the Spells and Magic collection, this ceramic sculpture examines how written words become tangible power, using the grimoire as a symbol of structured expression that bridges language and material reality.
The sculpture presents geometric forms stacked above an open book-shaped base, finished in rhodium enamel that creates a metallic surface. A cube, prism, and circle rise in balanced arrangement, each form representing different aspects of magical transformation. The rhodium finish provides uniform reflective properties across all surfaces, while the geometric precision creates clear visual relationships between the stacked elements.
The work measures fourteen by thirty by ten centimeters and weighs approximately one kilogram. Created in France during 2024, the sculpture carries certificate of authenticity number 20240428-0067 with the artist's signature on the back. The piece transforms the traditional concept of a spell book into contemporary sculptural language, making abstract ideas of knowledge and mystery physically present through ceramic construction.
