Wreath
At first glance, a victorious wreath presents a familiar image rooted in antiquity: a wreath of olive branches associated with Olympic victory, achievement, and glory. Handcrafted from soft glass using a torch, the wreath appears as a living material suspended in time.
Seen from afar, it appears natural and full-bodied, yet a closer look reveals a fragile, delicate, and vulnerable material. Through the encounter between an idealized symbol of victory and a material perceived as both luxurious and fragile, the work addresses the elusive nature of glory—something that appears precise and complete on the surface, yet exists in a delicate and precarious balance from within.
