The First Pharaoh is a powerful sculptural work that evokes the mystique and authority of ancient rulers through a contemporary lens. Combining bronze and stainless steel, the piece reflects both the timeless legacy of ancient Egypt and the modern artist’s exploration of strength, divinity, and human identity.

Mounted on a granite base, the sculpture commands attention with its regal presence and striking vertical form. The use of welded metal elements emphasizes a contrast between material permanence and symbolic mythology, offering a modern tribute to the origin of leadership and the mythos surrounding the first divine kings.
