This small sculpture distills motion into a single, continuous arc: a dark, whale-like body rises from its base and curls skyward, carrying a pale, mermaid figure as if thought itself has found a vessel. The dialogue of patinas—nocturnal bronze against a brighter, moonlit sheen—creates a tender chiaroscuro where weight becomes buoyancy and metal reads as water. With wing-like fins and a rider poised between surrender and command, the work suggests an allegory of trust: the imagination learning to navigate the vast, unknowable currents beneath it.
