A quiet gravity settles in this piece — where crimson-tinted blossoms seem to rest with intent, not scattered by wind but anchored by feeling. Suspended over richly grained reclaimed wood, their presence is bold yet contemplative, like thoughts that linger long after the words have faded.
The dark resin field, layered with soft crystal textures, deepens the sense of stillness. The blooms do not drift; they stay. And in their staying, they speak of memory, of beauty held too tightly, and of the exquisite ache of transience.
Crafted from redwood and finished by hand, The Weight of Bloom is a meditation on presence. It captures that elusive moment when beauty is no longer light — but meaningful, grounded, and unforgettable.
