The Sun Fragment

ABOUT THE WORK

A fractured solar crest salvaged from the collapse of an ancient sanctuary. When external structures crumble and civilizations fade, the resilient spirit gathers the broken fragments to preserve the sacred fire that belongs to it alone.

CURATORIAL & TACTILE PROFILE

Part of 'The Codex Suite', an exclusive 16-piece cyclical investigation into human endurance and archaic memory by Milan-based artist Ghanem Hassan.
