Seed of the Human Soul

SEED OF THE HUMAN SOUL is a ceramic sculpture of a heart, its form rough and weathered, as if shaped by time and turmoil. Pit-fired to a deep, consuming black, the surface speaks of the darkness within—the weight of sorrow, doubt, and the unseen struggles that define the human spirit. Yet, nestled within the heart lies a peculiar seed, its core emanating a quiet, persistent glow. This seed is the essence of resilience, the light that remains even in the heaviest shadow. The piece invites contemplation on the duality of existence, reminding us that even in the depths of the soul’s darkness, a luminous spark endures, waiting to grow.
