Cast beeswax
Tim Silver's moving sculpture of a human embrace is surrounded by entrancing and colourful contemporary paintings that almost imply the stained glass windows of a cathedral. They are at once life-like (because they were cast from real people), and dying (because the beeswax is slowly melting).
Only the photograph and film will preserve the memory of this sculpture when it is gone. In the meantime, the lesson for us is that there is beauty in the impermanent and as the Japanese would say, all of life embodies the principle of wabi-sabi.
