EMBER
A moment suspended between stillness and ignition. Ember is not the fire itself, but the spark - the beginning of resilience, transformation, and unyielding spirit. Her hair flares like flame in motion, yet she holds her balance with quiet strength. Before every flame, is a single ember glowing quietly. This sculpture captures that moment of potential: a figure poised in balance, her hair flowing like fire, embodying both fragility and strength. She is not yet the inferno, but the spark that hold the promise of a turning point.
Ember is a meditation on resilience - the power that begins small, almost imperceptible, yet carries within it the force to ignite great change.
All of my work is made with TIG welding stainless steel - I never cast it from clay. I prefer to work in permanence. Usually “working in permanence” is reserved to stone, wood or glass. It is very rare to work in stainless steel without casting it from clay. This is why I love welding, grinding an shaping even the smallest details straight from stainless. Her little fingers are mere 3/32” diameter wires. I careful shaped her fingers using low amps on my TIG welder. her hands are some of the smallest, yet most accurate hands, I have ever made!
SPECS:
Weight: 10+ lbs
Height: 18” (bottom of base to tip of the hair)
