A geometric, cuboid plinth becomes an integral part of the sculpture, entering into a tense relationship with the organic form. The element displayed upon it draws space and air from the base, as if feeding on its interior, while growing in volume and significance. Although the plinth remains the structural foundation of the whole, it also becomes a site of pressure and a source of physical tension. The closed geometric form of the base is directly bound to the organic shape, whose volume is a response to the process unfolding within.
The result is a fragile, precarious construction, poised on the verge of losing its balance. Its stability, however, stems not from the subordination of one form to the other, but from their mutual influence. This tension between the geometric and the organic is the very condition of the construction’s existence – it keeps the two forms, for all their difference, inseparably bound.
