The Circle of Life Series is a visual manifestation of thedynamic philosophy of life, created by artist Redy Rahadian, renowned for hissignature use of small human figures made of iron. These figures aremeticulously arranged to form a large upright circle, symbolizing the eternalcycle of life.
What distinguishes this piece is the presence of ironspheres within the circle, connected by red-colored human figures. This elementdeepens the artwork’s meaning, suggesting that within life’s journey, there arefocal points, significant events, or emotional burdens that continue to moveand influence the overall balance of life.
The sturdy, dark of the circle contrasts strikingly with thevibrant red figures, which appear active supporting or propelling the spheres.The shadows cast on the back wall enhance the narrative, reminding us that lifeis not only about tangible forms, but also about traces, reflections, andunseen meaning.
