This sculpture is a self-contained, upright figure that sits somewhere between human presence and geological form. Its columnar body recalls standing stone or eroded rock, while subtle contours suggest a head, shoulders, and torso emerging from weathered strata. Variations in surface texture and tone—chalky whites, muted earth colours, and exposed seams—evoke natural processes of erosion over time. The sculpture belongs to both ancient and contemporary worlds. Balancing stillness with latent movement, the work reflects on endurance, embodiment, and the deep, shared ancestry between the human body and the material world from which it arises.
