“Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?” — Mary Oliver
This piece is not a direct answer but a response in fragments.
Layers of hand-torn bamboo paper, each painted with sumi ink, have been brought together and reassembled, allowing space for movement, interruption and the unexpected. The composition resists neatness. It leans into something more instinctive. More alive.
The marks themselves are not literal. They are their own language. Gestures, traces, something felt rather than read. A quiet conversation with the wild. A message, perhaps, from something larger than us.
The handwritten word Precious rests gently at the edge, grounding the piece , a gentle reminder rather than a declaration with Tell Me demanding something a little stronger.
