At times it takes shape as weight; at others, as lightness. It traces what we hold over time, what we inherit, and what we might release.

In 2023, the two decided to return to their legacy, bringing the story full circle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe work takes form through archetypal clay figures. Unglazed and exposed, their surfaces carry scars and visible seams – quiet records of experience. Each mark suggests both burden and release. As a defining gesture, orb-vessels made from ceramic or paper fiber yarn are either carried or surrendered.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elizabeth Salonen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68337187192983,"sku":null,"price":3200.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/9976\/0535\/files\/DSC_2000B.jpg?v=1794584165","url":"https:\/\/shop.mottoform.com\/products\/what-we-carry-untitled-03","provider":"Elizabeth Salonen","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
