Technique & Materiality: Sand is a profound exercise in mineral stillness. It is the most raw and unfiltered piece in the series, where the artist integrates fibers and organic detritus into a dense base of acrylic and plaster. This “geological” approach creates a surface that is not just seen, but deeply felt. The work captures the precise moment when the sea recedes, leaving behind a complex web of roots and sediment. In its 23 x 32 cm, the earthy palette is broken by subtle glazes of rust and charcoal, mimicking the chemical life hidden within the shore.
Philosophy & Future Vision: The philosophy of Sand is the search for the primordial foundation. It represents the “grounding” of the Inhale exhibition—the silent, heavy matter that supports all life. It is an ode to resilience: the debris that remains, the roots that hold, and the quiet beauty of the discarded. As a foundational investment piece, Sand is destined to be the anchor of any collection, offering a sober and sophisticated presence that connects the modern interior with the ancient rhythms of the earth.
