zen vase by prapat jiwarangsan from thailand
designer's own words:
Asian people often have a philosophy that soul is very important – a balance of mind and body. No matter how long the time passes by; if you have a peaceful and beautiful mind, it will reflect through your body gestures.
My purpose is to introduce the power of nature hidden in a silent stone. However, I could sense the movable power in the nature too. I then convey the message of the movement of power as shown in the work using technique of glass blowing. The composition of shape and form is similar to the contour of landscape; mixing the feeling of claim, movement and relaxing like a peaceful Zen garden in Japanese style reflecting the eastern philosophy.
