Through the image of a deep-sea fish living in the total darkness of the ocean depths, Alexander Dedov created a symbol of terrifying life forms capable of dwelling in the abyss of the shadowy sides of the subconscious. However, the name of the demon - Lucifer - means "bearing light," and light cannot exist without darkness. The sculpture embodies the idea of a bright ray of truth, which even the most terrifying demons of the human soul are capable of creating.
