Mercury Rising

Mercury Rising is a sculptural tribute to the iconic legacy of Freddie Mercury and Queen, delving into themes of fame, identity, and existential transcendence. The fragmented, metallic figure—stitched together and softened—evokes Mercury’s complex persona: both vulnerable human and immortal rock god. A rotating clock face adorned with Queen's image serves as a reminder of time’s unyielding march and the pursuit of legacy. Reflective surfaces invite viewers to see themselves within the piece, questioning the allure and cost of “god-like” status. Mercury Rising merges glamor and introspection, celebrating the timeless resonance of an artist who defined an era.
