FIRE
Given the name of this studio, it will come as no surprise
that this is a favored piece in the series. In contrast
to the precision of AIR, the Fire crystal is more wild
and random, an instant of flame caught in a crystal
moment. The element of the South, of energy and dynamic
action, and of the archangel Michael, the crystal matrix
is framed by (and radiates) the triangle, the traditional
alchemical symbol for the element.
The Elemental Series
The intention behind this series of work was to capture
the essence of each of the elements using a crystalline
matrix as the "medium". The colors of each
piece are consistent with hermetic symbolism, with each
of the three prime elements (air, fire, and water) being
represented by the three pairs of contrasting colors
in the color spectrum (yes, there are only six colors
in the spectrum... Newton created Indigo so there would
be seven colors, a more spiritually solid number).
