They weren’t meant to be candlesticks, not at first. Mateo had been working with pewter for weeks, obsessing over tension and rhythm—stacking, compressing, distorting. He said they were studies in pressure, but to Alma, they looked like spines. Not human ones. Older. Something prehistoric, or celestial.
It wasn’t until the gallery opening that someone dropped a tea light into the tallest one, uninvited. The flame caught a groove and flickered down its twisted ribs. Mateo didn’t say a word. Just watched, then nodded.
After that, he made more. A set of three. Each one slightly different.
