Flower With Fountain (Layered Marble Form)

Carved in pale marble, the sculpture stacks soft, wave-like strata into a column that reads at once as architectural support and bodily gesture—something between a spine, a cairn, and a protective embrace. Light grazes the rounded planes and reveals hairline seams and veining, turning the stone’s cool permanence into a quietly breathing surface that suggests time, pressure, and endurance. The clustered ovoid forms gathered at the top evoke seeds or river-worn stones, as if the work culminates in an offering—nature patiently held aloft by human order. Its poise is deliberately precarious, inviting contemplation of balance: how weight, memory, and care can be carried without collapsing into rigidity.
