Janus
A vessel of contrasts, Janus rises like a dark flame frozen in time. Its base swells with chaotic, organic folds—an eruption of swirling black tendrils evoking both growth and decay. From this textured storm ascends a smoother, sinuous form that culminates in a deep crimson crown, sculpted like fire or blooming petals.
The black surface absorbs light into its curves, while the red top captures the eye—a duality between shadow and passion, the ancient and the emerging.
Named for the Roman god of transitions and duality, Janus embodies opposing forces: creation and dissolution, the known and the unknown. Both vessel and sculpture, it invites contemplation as much as use.
