Gift from the sea

This twined, sculptural form nestles within the fragment of a shell. Its spiral shape is composed of light-coloured linen and features an embedded shell with a smooth, iridescent surface, creating contrasting textures. It was inspired by the abandoned architecture of seashells with no living creature inside.
