Stella Tundra emerges from the observation that form tends toward two conditions: the precise and the irregular, the distant and the grounded.
Some formations hold themselves in clarity—geometric, crystalline, governed by forces that extend beyond the visible. Others unfold through growth, erosion, and time—shifting, contingent, and without fixed edge.
These are not opposites, but intertwined tendencies present in all matter. Structure dissolves into softness; the irregular approaches form.
Stella refers to what is held in geometry—radiant, distant, and ordered.
Tundra belongs to what is earthbound—tactile, evolving, and indefinite.
The work moves between these conditions, tracing moments where one becomes the other. Natural formations are observed, translated, and reconstituted—held briefly in porcelain and gold.
Each piece exists as a singular occurrence: a fragment of a process that cannot be repeated, a form suspended between emergence and stillness.
