The Anteler
Within the open crescent curve of the horn is the cradle of heroic strength.
Symbolic of power in many cultures, the horn possesses the eternal spirit
arising from acts of bravery and loyalty. The horn’s crescent reaches beyond
its bounds, continually overflowing with protective magic, without emptiness.
Sculptor Agelio Batle honors some of nature's most exquisite forms in this series of graphite objects. His reverence for organic shapes grew from formal studies in biology and art, but countless hours in the wilderness gave the artist an intimate understanding of nature's geometry. The objects in this series are a testament to that insight.
Batle sees these objects as sculpture, but they are also fully functional drawing tools. All of their surfaces can write!
