Carved from the roots of a cedar tree, this long, asymmetrical bowl feels more like a gesture than a vessel. Its silhouette stretches and curves like a splash of black water caught mid-motion—fluid, raw, and unmistakably alive.
The surface is scorched to a deep charcoal using the Yakisugi technique, revealing layered grain and wild textures from the tree’s underground history. No symmetry. No predictability. Just movement, shadow, and form.
Equal parts sculpture and container, Blackwater doesn’t sit quietly—it lingers.
