This sculptural work presents a fragile, bowl-like form with jagged, irregular edges that appear weathered and worn. Its rough, porous surface evokes natural processes such as erosion, decay, and transformation. The open structure, punctured with voids and gaps, suggests both loss and resilience—an object that has endured time yet remains standing. The neutral, earthy tones enhance its organic quality, making it feel as though it could have emerged from the ground or been shaped by environmental forces rather than human hands.

Resting in space yet visually heavy with texture, the piece balances delicacy and strength. It invites viewers to look closely at its surface, tracing the marks, holes, and fractures that tell a story of gradual change and material memory.

Artist Statement
My work explores transformation through material—how objects can shift, erode, and evolve over time. In this piece, I was interested in creating something that feels both constructed and naturally formed, as if it exists between making and unmaking.

The fragile edges and open voids represent absence, but also possibility. I am drawn to surfaces that show process—imperfections, breaks, and textures that reveal how something has been shaped. Rather than hiding these qualities, I emphasize them, allowing the material to speak.

This sculpture reflects on the idea that nothing is permanent. Forms change, structures weaken, and yet there is beauty in that instability. I want the viewer to experience both the vulnerability and the quiet strength within the piece, and to consider how time, pressure, and environment leave their marks on everything.
