Vessel of light
Vessel of Light takes the form of a vessel inspired by the traces of light. Delicate golden lines trace luminous contours that appear to float effortlessly, while deep black forms reminiscent of shadow provide a quiet sense of balance and grounding. In this work, light and shadow meet, revealing a delicate harmony between presence and absence.
