Echoes of Water
Water has always been present in my life—not just as an element, but as a companion. I grew up beside an oxbow lake that shaped my earliest memories—jumping into its cool depths in summer, gliding over its frozen surface in winter. I didn’t know then that water would become my creative lifeline.
Years later, I returned to swimming and rediscovered that forgotten serenity. As I glided underwater, sunlight broke through the surface and painted fluid shapes on the pool’s floor. For a fleeting moment, I felt weightless, released from gravity and thought. That moment became a seed—one that grew into a creative impulse I couldn’t ignore.
Water is constant, yet never the same. It calms, nourishes, overwhelms, disappears. It is a paradox of presence and loss, beauty and danger. This duality inspired two collections.
Lady of the Lake is fluid, feminine, and enveloping. It captures water’s graceful, playful side—its embrace, its motion, the dance of waves and pearls. It’s about connection and surrender, and the language of emotion swirling beneath the surface. There’s something timeless in how it flows—seductive, calm, yet powerful in depth. It reminds us that softness can shape even stone.
Frostbite is its counterpart—wild, sharp, crystalline. It reflects water in its solid state—rigid yet delicate, dangerous yet captivating. Its forms appear to cling to the body like frost, mimicking how ice kisses skin with both beauty and severity. There is tension in its geometry: it balances light and danger, clarity and collapse.
But the ice is vanishing. What once covered vast landscapes now melts into memory. Frostbite is not about winter—it is about transformation, and the disappearing brilliance of water’s most fragile form.
These two states—liquid and solid—are not just matter, but memory. Not just nature, but reflection.
Water covers 71% of Earth’s surface and makes up about 60% of the human body. Yet we treat it as infinite, instead of precious. Through these jewels, I wanted to remind us: water is not only around us—it is within us.
Echoes of water—translated into form.
