DESCRIPTION:  Colors: white - black - silver - gold

The Venus cabinet can be considered a representation of the concept of Vanitas, a theme which has always been at the center of Cagianell's work, in which various symbols and metaphors narrate the fragility of human existence...here the excessive size of the bubbles, which assue a particular transparency due to the the material carbon fiber, wonderfully translate the concept of the soap bubbe as a symbol for the fragility of life.
