Selfportreat (Bound)

This sculptural fragment reads like a cross‑section of time itself: a dense, mineral body split open to reveal a radiant field of striations that pulse outward from a muted core. The cool greys and ash tones hold a stoic stillness, yet the starburst texture suggests an inner force—growth, pressure, or memory—caught at the instant of eruption. The coiled rope, with its small red interruptions, introduces a human measure of restraint and rescue, binding the geological to the domestic and turning the object into a quiet meditation on endurance and containment. In its stark isolation, the piece becomes both relic and warning—nature’s slow violence made intimate.
