Stone Seed
A hand swept away fine grit, revealing the chill surface of polished concrete; fern fronds were pressed into its density, each detail sharply defined. These weren’t isolated forms but echoed across the block in precise repetition, mirroring magnified cellular patterns. Rough textures nestled within the smooth finish hinted at layered impressions—not merely remnants of former shapes, but possibilities arrested mid-flow. The touch felt disruptive, as if disturbing a complex and inherent order; a subtle vibration resonated from the stone itself.
