"Where you touch, thorns grow" explores the creation of an unfamiliar form by blending textures that evoke both desire and discomfort. The relationship between form and material fosters a sense of alienation, prompting a simultaneous urge to reach out and retreat. While the soft fur invites touch, the thorns and holes introduce an unsettling element. Despite its prickly appearance, the ceramic nature lends it fragility, creating a compelling tension between allure and vulnerability.
