Telamon II

2025, 62”x 17”x 13”, Stoneware, cone 1 oxidation, underglaze, stain, milk paint, wax, wood, gouache, milk paint, wax. Telamon refers to the use of a male figure as a load-bearing architectural element. However, this piece has no load on its shoulders, suggesting that the weight it bears is not physical, but internal, psychological. With its pierced surface, the body becomes a landscape for trauma.
