This delicate sculpture captures the moment between violence and wish, between destruction and flight. The piece embodies the wish flower's ultimate paradox - how something so fragile invites such rough handling, how we must destroy beauty to release its magic, how the gentlest things leave the most permanent marks. The sculpture's form suggests both intact bloom and explosion of seeds, frozen in that eternal instant when solid becomes scatter. Its structure appears impossibly delicate yet surprisingly resilient - filaments and spheres that seem to tremble at the slightest breath, yet hold their position with quiet defiance. The work plays with transparency and light, creating shadows that multiply its presence like seeds taking flight. Surface treatments evoke the iridescent quality of wish-dust, that imaginary glitter that clings to skin long after the wish has been scattered. Certain angles reveal an almost prismatic quality, as if the sculpture carries within it all the wishes ever made, all the breaths ever given in hope. The piece seems to shift between states - now solid, now about to dissolve, forever balanced on the edge of transformation. Ich bin ganz zart wenn ich sehe, dass du grob sein willstReiß mich aus und wünsch dir was Der Glitzerstaub auf deiner Haut wird dir ewig bleibenSo einzigartig wie du ist sonst nur der Wind Pusteblume transforms the childhood ritual of wish-making into permanent form. It stands as testament to the beauty of offering ourselves to destruction when it means granting another's desire, to the strange permanence of ephemeral moments, and to the recognition that only the wind matches our capacity for being utterly unique and completely free. For collectors who understand that true strength often wears the mask of fragility, who recognise that some gifts require us to scatter ourselves to the wind - a sculpture that holds both tenderness and violence in crystalline suspension. Clay with effect glaze, 24kt gold, base made of steatite.
