An element of Atelier Van Lieshout’s New Tribal Labyrinth series, Embrace is an organically shaped sculpture that doubles as a lamp. Its molten form is composed of three abstract figures, merging them into a singular tribal totem for worship.
The bronze sculpture directs its light from within, as seen through its highly polished golden orifices. Van Lieshout plays with the theme of divine light coming from within the human body, representative of the soul.

Atelier Van Lieshout rose to fame with projects that travel between the world of minimalist design and non-functional art, including sculptures and installations, buildings and furniture, utopias and dystopias.
