Art Riva Sunset Candle

FRAGRANCE: Sunset

During my recent visit to the Rothko exhibition at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris, I was deeply moved by the intensity and emotional depth of his work. The rich planes of color and subtle transitions invite reflection and a profound connection with our inner emotions.

This experience inspired the creation of a candle that evokes that same atmosphere of tranquility and depth. Bold, deep hues subtly evolve into lighter, more ethereal colors as the candle burns, an effect that symbolizes the transition from daily turmoil to a state of inner peace.

I hope this candle serves not only as an aesthetic pleasure but also as a way to integrate the contemplative spirit of Rothko’s art into everyday life. Each time it is lit, I hope it offers a moment of silence and reflection, an escape from the noise to reconnect with one's deeper self.

During a recent visit to the Rothko exhibition at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris, I was deeply moved by the silent power and emotional depth of his work. The rich, layered colors and subtle transitions invited a moment of stillness—an intimate connection with something deeper. This experience became the spark for a candle collection designed to evoke that same sense of tranquility and introspection.

Each candle is a journey: as it burns, the deep and bold hues gently fade into lighter, more ethereal shades—reflecting the transition from the daily hustle to a space of inner calm. Far more than a beautiful object, every candle represents a pause, a serene breath, and a quiet invitation to reconnect with oneself.

Our collections are named after iconic women who inspire us through their strength, elegance, and uniqueness. Inspired by Angèle, the Belgian pop icon whose voice illuminated the Olympic Games, this candle is vibrant, modern, and full of soul.
