This patinated bronze form unfolds like a protective shell or opening bud, its symmetrical wings framing a dense, seedlike core that feels both guarded and quietly emergent. The turquoise-green oxidation behaves like weather and memoryβpooling in creases, catching on ridgesβso the surface reads as time made tactile rather than mere finish. Poised on a small pedestal, the sculpture turns negative space into an inner chamber, suggesting a threshold between concealment and revelation, where tenderness is held with the gravity of ritual.
