still.life. (yellow candle) is part of an ongoing still life series by Ugo Rondinone. It depicts a life-size wax candle that has apparently burned down, in the process dripping wax around its base. The work's naturalistic appearance was achieved in a labor-intensive process of bronze casting and filling the cast with lead. Subsequently the surface of the sculpture was painted to create a believable illusion.
