This hand-built ceramic sculpture explores the transitional currents of human emotion. Rooted in psychological inquiry, the sweeping, dynamic curl captures that critical moment where we face a choice: surrender to life’s momentum and ride the shifting edge, or let ourselves be crushed by it.
The piece manifests this psychological threshold through the striking visual juxtaposition of our inner and outer world. A fluid, glass-like interior of pooled turquoise and frothy sea-foam glaze flows directly against a heavy, weathered exterior defined by rough, earthen-like textures. Deep, scorched fissures and rugged, bark-like scoring run along the outer wall, echoing the fractured, beautifully unpolished layers of our lives. It is a powerful exploration of the raw, vulnerable depths we carry inside versus the deeply grounded, weathered armor we present to the world.
Instead of fighting the overwhelming forces of life, this sculpture reminds us of the power found in leaning into the ride
