About this artwork
AN ULTRA-CONTEMPORARY STAINED GLASS WINDOW
This piece is an ultra-contemporary stained glass window that fits into a minimalist Menorah.
The network that suggests the holding of the pieces together is not made of lead but of rubber glued to the glass slab.
In the yellow and blue coloring plan, this stained glass window represents an arena in perspective seen from above which is, as one can imagine, the theater of political and cultural debates… of civil society, it is also a geometric form well known in mathematics; a conoid, surface generated by a straight line which describes a rotation around an axis.
In the peripheral zone, the colors are juxtaposed according to the visible light spectrum, from violet tending towards brown, in the lower part of the plate, towards purple, under the line of LED lamps.
The mesh that separates the colors of the stained glass is at right angles, at each segment intersection, like equipotential lines of a magnetic field.

Credentials
- Works on commission
Philippe Fares is a contemporary French artist whose career has been profoundly shaped by the diversity of cultures and the interaction of art and science. His unique perspective, sharpened by a childhood spent in sub-Saharan Africa, is a testament to his early exposure to the art world, particularly to the influence of primitive arts. Returning to France at the age of 16, Philippe embarked on a path that allowed him to cultivate his understanding of Western arts while pursuing scientific studies.
Philippe Fares’ artworks are meticulously constructed using scientific methods and careful planning. His creations often feature a recurring tiling pattern, a meticulously balanced play with chance. This synthesis of meticulous design and the unpredictability of chance gives his works a dynamic and intriguing quality.
