Concept
“Silent Fragments” explores the intersection of two scales of time: the geological time of stones shaped by waves and weather, and the human time preserved in historical Japanese manuscripts. By pairing natural stone with traces of calligraphy, each work becomes a composition of balance, tension, and stillness.
Edition 01: Monochrome
This first edition features five stones selected for their restrained, ink-like tones. Like a suiboku-ga (ink wash painting), the palette expresses depth through subtle gradations of black, grey, and mineral white.
Limited to five unique sets. Each set is individually numbered.
Stones in This Set
• The Beacon – Velvet-black stone marked by a vivid white line
