This ceramic sculpture presents a contemplative female visage emerging from a dense, organic mass of petal- and shell-like forms. The face, rendered with quiet realism and softened expression, appears both grounded and otherworldly, eyes lowered, lips gently parted, as if listening inward or on the verge of speech. Surrounding her head and shoulders, layered botanical structures bloom and curl outward, evoking flowers, coral, or growths in various stages of unfurling. The surface is richly glazed, with translucent greens, mossy blues, earthen browns, and flashes of ochre and gold that pool and break across the form. These flowing glazes accentuate the sculpture’s sense of movement, suggesting natural processes such as erosion, growth, and decay. The contrast between the smooth, metallic warmth of the face and the rough, undulating textures around it heightens the tension between the human and the elemental. The work feels like a figure in the midst of transformation.
