The crystal mace of Trash.

 The "Mace of Trash" is a series that I've completed recently. 

It is a total 36 piece series produced within the same form visually and functionally resembling traditional war maces. It is made from salvaged waste and epoxy resin. 

Maces were one of the most common weapons used on ground against armored and non-armored foes usually comprised of wood and steel. The mace required almost to none skills and techniques to wield, and were prominently used by peasants and foot soldiers of lower ranks. Although the effectiveness on field proved its reliability and therefore were seen quite commonly throughout the eras where ground warfares were commenced by steel edged weapons. 

The crystal like presence shines out to yell "this is not a weapon." Rather a tool to outshine others at the nightclubs where you'd be expected at the very front of the dance floor. At night on the way home, this artwork piece can then act as means of deterrence. 

The anatomy of this sculpture series has been designed using traditional theories and means of historical European weapons: ratios and proportions. The result is its functional beauty as a weapon and art. Although by the fragility of its material, this mace is far from being able to fulfill its functional duty of surviving in the battlefield. 

In the end, humanity must graduate weapon and violence. Perhaps, in the future, all weapons will become wall decorations made out of crystals.

COLORFULL




 

FUlL of colors. 

In this era, we must be prepared to give fake information. That is how much we no longer SHOULD trust strangers. Carry a mace, carry a crystal.
