Meditation 2014

"Meditation," a 2014 work by Joseph Pace, is an intricate and detailed mixed media piece, primarily composed of pearls, beads, and other found objects. The artwork evokes a sense of opulence and grandeur, reminiscent of a regal crown or ceremonial attire. The dense layering of materials creates a tactile and visually captivating surface. The work’s use of gold and pearl tones suggests a focus on luxury and the transient nature of material wealth. It invites contemplation on the themes of beauty, adornment, and the passage of time.
