A coral-red monolith rises from a void-like ground, its speckled skin oscillating between mineral crust and wounded flesh, as soft, segmented forms cling to it like parasitic ornaments or larvae seeking warmth. The vertical scar of pale light down its center reads as both a seam and a revelation—an incision that exposes a quieter interior amid the surrounding saturation. Composed as a still life of the uncanny, the work stages a tension between containment and proliferation, where the object’s dignity is persistently breached by growths that suggest appetite, contamination, and reluctant metamorphosis.
