"...there suddenly arose a thick cloud followed by a shower of hail, and the same night the points of the spears belonging to the Fifth Legion seem to take fire."-Julius Caesar, Commentaries
The title refers to the electric, not astronomic definition of corona, also known as St. Elmo's Fire.
A composite of two previous artworks; The Beauty of Metal and Light Graffiti.

hmm, my meaning? Forks have magical powers.
the fork not being clean doesnt bother me.
I think you should dust your tables sir! Clean the table, skip the fork in my opinion.

Actually thats not a table, thats the top of my computer from a year ago, and yeah, it was pretty dusty up there.

yeah I wasn't sure about he bottom part, I was hoping the negative colors would carry the visual weight required, but apparently not. Thanks for the input.

creative way of approaching the problem.
if youe ver get a chance, and get a nicer/higher res camera, you should retake images of your sculpture.
Maybe run it through one of those cleaners that makes the silver/metal really shiney and clean.

I've been meaning to re-take the picture, and soon I might have access to a well enough camera. I'd never thought of cleaning them though. Thank you.

cool stuff....is it suppose to be abstract? Because im getting a meaning here. Or maybe you could explain it. Either way it looks really cool.

Its a bit abstract, yes. Of course a big part of (what I believe to be) abstract art is allowing the viewer to find the meanng themselves...
