Ifreann, meaning “hell” in the Irish language, is a dark contemporary wall sculpture shaped from weathered wood. Its twisted contours, deep fissures and eroded surfaces suggest an architecture of the underworld, somewhere between a ruined gate from Hades. One of a kind and deliberately unsettling, the piece is a moody statement sculpture shaped by decay, fire and time.
Inspiration & Notes
Found in an abandoned school, when the pieces were put together, its form speaks of a doorway or gate. The first inspiration was the entrance to Mordor from The Lord of the Rings movie.
