This work begins as an act of natural formation — wood shaped slowly by erosion and time, without awareness or intention. In casting it into bronze, I intervene in that process, transforming organic impermanence into something enduring. The sculpture holds two temporal forces in tension: nature’s unconscious evolution and humanity’s need to preserve.

What appears as gesture is not a single moment, but time itself made visible — growth, erosion, and stillness held in one form. The wood did not measure time; it simply existed within it. In casting it into bronze, I participate in a distinctly human impulse: to preserve, to define, to give permanence to what would otherwise pass unnoticed.

Cast in a limited edition of five, the work is not about narrative, but presence — a meditation on form, transformation, and the inevitability of human intervention.

Process Note:
The original burl has been digitally archived and is currently being prepared for casting. A restrained layer of clay is applied directly to its surface before molding. The original wood will not remain in its prior state after the casting process.
