A benevolent face gazes forth from the sun, its rays formed by fish. Working in steel, Alejandro de Esesarte creates a wall sculpture with richly textured color. With the fish as a symbol of Christ, I have created this sun, he says. Jesus is known as the fisher of men, and early Christians used the fish as a secret symbol. In Greek, its letters stood for Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior. Because each piece is individually hand-crafted and painted, size and color could vary slightly.
