In Memory of a Pond

In Memory of a Pond
2022 // Porcelain, Cement, Wire, Foam board

In Memory of a Pond is a public, outdoor ceramic sculpture made for Lansing Art Gallery's 2022 ArtPath. Relief details on the surface of the work mimic the curves and ripples of waves, while drawing further inspiration from roof tiles and adornments on traditional Japanese houses. This work reflects on memories from my great-grandparents’ home in Waipahu, Hawaii, and uses the repeated unit of tile to map how those memories have changed over time.
