With Lux in tenebris II, Pascal Borghi presents a deeply evocative sculpture in stoneware and wood. This vertical artwork, solemn and intimate, depicts a kneeling figure, head bowed and arm extended, holding what appears to be a flame or scepter—a fragile beacon in the dark.
The Latin title, meaning “Light in the darkness,” immediately suggests spiritual and poetic tension. The figure’s gesture is both humble and heroic: this being, half-human, half-stone, seems to be searching for meaning, hope, or inner clarity. Through this sculpture, Borghi explores recurring dualities in his work: the visible and the invisible, weight and elevation, fragility and resilience.
The stoneware, worked in raw, time-worn textures, gives the impression of a body shaped by endurance. The figure rises from a monolithic base—like a body carved from a tree trunk—suggesting a painful emergence or rebirth. The outstretched arm, exaggerated in length, leads the eye to a delicate, vertical rod: a symbol of light, signal, or silent prayer.
Pascal Borghi sculpts like a storyteller. Here, the narrative unfolds through posture: the angle of the head, the curve of the spine, the energy held in the gesture. This character becomes a guardian, a seeker, a witness standing between shadow and light, between earthly weight and spiritual aspiration.
This is a powerful piece for collectors who seek emotionally resonant sculptures—works that carry not only aesthetic beauty but a deeper, symbolic message. Lux in tenebris II is available to buy online and would suit a refined interior, a symbolic art collection, or a contemplative space.
Far beyond decoration, this sculpture calls for reflection. It speaks of resilience, inner search, and the fragile light we carry within in the face of darkness. Pascal Borghi, true to his vision of matter as memory and spirit, offers here a sculpture that acts like a silent prayer—an anchor, a flame, a vigil.
