There is only one.
What you see is not rendered, not reproduced, not made to order —
but shaped once, directly in wood.

The form opens outward, yet remains anchored within itself.
A widening arc that holds both expansion and balance at once.

It began without a sketch or plan.
I stood in front of the wood and allowed the material to lead —
And with each cut, the movement revealed itself.

The form shifts depending on how you approach it.
On one side, it rises — almost like a wing caught mid-motion.
From another, it becomes more compact, more grounded — architectural in presence.

There is a quiet tension between lightness and mass.
Between what extends outward and what remains contained.

It does not demand attention.
It builds it slowly.

Carved from a single piece of walnut wood,
The surface carries warm, deep tones that respond to light with subtle variation.

The smooth finish allows the hand to move freely across it,
while the structure remains true to the direction in which it was formed.

“I don’t just carve wood. I carve what I feel — and the wood responds.”
— Ewelina Głowacz
