Latent Fire takes the form of a firescreen composed of hand-forged steel and ink on glass. At its centre, a printed glass panel presents an inverted torch — a funerary motif associated with passage, renewal, and the cyclical nature of life — held here in suspension.

Fire is embedded in the work both materially and functionally: in the forging of metal, the making of glass, and in the firescreen’s role as a decorative shield. Designed to mediate proximity to heat, the firescreen frames and contains what it protects against.
