Biocentrism Candelabra & Incense Vessel

A sculptural invocation of coexistence, the Biocentrism Candelabra is a living altar to the interconnectedness of all beings. Cast as a gathering of five outstretched hands, each limb emerges as a different creature: a bird, a frog, a sloth, a raccoon, and a rhino.  It is a quiet reminder that no life form is secondary, no presence accidental. Each species holds its flame with equal reverence, embodying a singular truth: we all belong here.
The form rises from a grounded base etched in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics, a symbolic language reinterpreted to carry the core incantations of Thèria Haus:

Lighten up. Let go. Love. 
Pursue peace of mind. 
Close your eyes and see. 
The most powerful muse is our own inner child. 
Love, Thèria Haus.

These inscriptions root the piece in both antiquity and futurism, an artifact of past wisdom reawakened for a conscious age. At its foundation, the candelabra transforms into an incense vessel, complete with a built-in ash basin. As incense burns, its remnants gather below, an intentional ritual of release, where what is no longer needed is returned to stillness. Smoke rises, ash settles, and the cycle continues

Inspired by the expressive surrealism of hand forms seen in the work of Jonathan Adler, this piece expands the gesture into something more primal, more urgent. Not just a symbol of creation, but of responsibility. This is not merely an object. It is a philosophy cast in form. A reminder that we are not above nature; we are within it, and that to exist here is not a right to dominate, but a call to protect.
