Coral ceramic study / Encircle
A thick red ring turns the empty center into the object’s most insistent feature. Its broad, uneven rim makes the opening feel held rather than cut.
The interior and exterior edges never travel quite in parallel. That difference gives the ring its quiet tension.
How can an empty center become the main subject?

Open this studyBrass comb study / Repeat
A narrow spine holds a descending set of broad metal teeth. Read from the edge inward: a repeated interval becomes a changing rhythm.
The teeth share a direction but vary in length. The spine is the continuous element that makes the differences legible.
Open this studyAmber glass study / Turn
A rounded transparent body rises into a neck that bends away. The opening is small; the space below it is generous.
Light passes through the body, while the thick edge of the lip gathers it into a darker line. The bend interrupts the upward movement.
Open this studyIndigo textile study / Gather
A pleated textile fan holds several ridges in one standing form. A loose rust-colored thread escapes the repeated structure.
Each ridge is a small version of its neighbor. The thread introduces a line that follows a different rule.
