Reflections
In Reflections, a deep green void surrounds a luminous glass that holds a delicate trio: a white daisy, a pink chrysanthemum, and a stem of red berries. Each element carries its own quiet symbolism; the daisy suggesting innocence and purity, the chrysanthemum embodying honour and love, and the berries evoking blood and sacrifice. Together, they form a fragile constellation of emotion and meaning, held in tension within the same glass body.
The composition is serene, yet within the vessel’s mirrored surface a flurry of distorted light and colour creates a quiet intensity. The reflections are alive, chaotic, vibrant, unpredictable, standing in contrast to the tranquil backdrop. This unlikely pairing of blooms and berries, differing in size, colour, and temperament, suggests interdependence: how a single vessel, like the human body or psyche, must sustain many varying needs and emotions.
There is tenderness here, but also unease, a harmony built from difference, held together by the transparent vessel that both contains and reveals. In this way, Reflections becomes a meditation on empathy, resilience, and the complex act of carrying both beauty and burden within a single, fragile form.
