Hollow vase

This sculpture is crafted from zelkova wood, celebrated for its distinct and fine grain. Using a woodturning lathe, Ki-Tae Kim creates a smooth, voluminous curvature that contrasts sharply with a narrow top opening. The piece features a rare, naturally occurring hollow formed over decades by the decay of the tree's heartwood.
