Motherchild I

This glazed, ivory-toned figure compresses intimacy into a single, continuous contour: a seated body folding inward as a smaller form reclines across her lap, turning the sculpture into a quiet architecture of care. The high sheen gathers light along shoulders, thighs, and joined hands, making tenderness feel both palpable and fragile—at once preserved and perpetually slipping. By simplifying facial detail and emphasizing weight, gravity, and touch, the work shifts from portraiture to archetype, suggesting how nurture and vulnerability are carried not as sentiment, but as enduring physical memory.
