DEATH – from the series Four Horsemen

The work represents the Rider Death from the series Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

It was created from a metal ring base and incorporates organic material sealed in resin. A wasp, embedded as an integral element of the object, becomes both presence and remains—biological matter suspended between life and decomposition.

Death is not treated as metaphor or spectacle, but as a physical condition. The inclusion of an actual organism removes distance and symbolism; what is seen is not an image of death, but its material trace. The ring does not narrate an event, nor does it moralize. It simply holds what remains.

By transforming biological finality into a wearable form, the work confronts the viewer with the inescapability of death as consequence, not as drama. The Rider Death marks the end of escalation—not as punishment, but as certainty.
