‘SS Peak’ is part of Anya Glik’s Saint Sulpice set of sculptures that explores the idea of a crossover between a childhood memory and religious attributes.
‘As I was a kid I frequently visited Saint Sulpice church in Paris. This church in particular has antique candleholder typology where the surface is covered with peaks / cones that act as the main holding structure for candles. This was a common visual language for medieval period in Europe and is now becoming extinct and rare. Seeing it as a kid created a very distinct memory of mystery and complete mesmerisation which I tried to preserve and explore in a series of stainless steel sculptures.’ — Anya Glik
