The Last Ritual

This artifact is a monument to the moment when the logic of algorithms freezes powerlessly before eternity. Within a flawless optical dome, the finale of a sacred act is sealed: real wax candles with frozen drips and burnt wicks rise above the wreckage of old circuit boards. Beetles rest upon the wax bodies, transforming the composition into a mystical altar of digital decay.

As an artist, I have captured the point where "hardware" ceases to function and magic takes over. The candles that no longer warm and the circuits whose connections are severed and powerless are metaphors for the collapse of a technocratic world that tried to replace our souls. The beetles here act as guides between worlds, silent witnesses to how nature and time consume the remains of human ambition. As always, I only use insects found dead in nature; I do not kill for art, I merely provide a new form for life that has passed. It is an ode to rebirth through total combustion. A piece for those who understand: when all systems fail, only the light of a burnt-out candle and the silence of a new truth remain.

⚠️ Important Care Note: The interior of this dome contains genuine beeswax. To preserve the integrity of the artifact, it is strictly forbidden to:

Expose the pendant to direct sunlight.

Leave it in high-temperature environments or near heat sources.

Subject it to rapid temperature changes. Natural wax is a living material that demands the same respectful care as the power contained within it.

Signature Method & Absolute Uniqueness:

Each piece is crafted using my proprietary "Innovative Resin Dome" technique.

I have 5.5 years of professional experience in specialized resin craftsmanship.

The multi-stage manual polishing technique has been perfected to create an absolute lens effect.

I guarantee that every artifact is a one-of-a-kind creation.

I do not produce duplicates or replicas of my work.

This dome is a sealed story of how old algorithms must burn out to make room for the soul's rebellion.
