Power

This sculptural form captures a creature mid-tumble, its dark, burnished body suspended between collapse and levitation, as if time has been pulled taut around a single breath. The matte black mass reads as primal and earthen, while the stitched, gilded plane that cleaves its torso introduces a ritualistic geometry—an incision that becomes adornment, suggesting repair, restraint, or transformation. The tension between sleek curvature and tactile, patterned gold turns the body into a site of conflict where vulnerability is made visible, and motion becomes a metaphor for endurance. In its poised imbalance, the work evokes a mythic resilience: an animal presence that refuses to be merely wounded, insisting instead on becoming luminous at the seam.
