Joe Reyes Apodaca

"One of the younger generation of silver-smiths. Apodaca divides his time between practicing his craft and teaching. His work, basically organic in concept, has received numerous awards in both competitive and invitational exhibitions throughout the U.S. In CANDELABRUM the sculptural form of the metal has a feeling of growth that sweeps into an organic union with the candles. The light is reflected off the silver, reinforcing the union of the candles and the metal form."
