Crafting Poiesis

2024

Carrara marble - hand carved

 26 x 20x 20cm

Carved from statuary Carrara marble, this sculpture of a man’s head explores poiesis—the Greek concept of bringing something into being. It reflects the artist’s ongoing struggle to shape thought into form, balancing control with surrender, precision with instinct. Each chisel mark records the tension between idea and material, revealing the act of making as both an assertion and a yielding to the stone.
