✨ Highlighting 𝗚𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗮 𝗙𝗮𝗻 𝗗𝘂𝗮𝗻‘s 𝙃𝙮𝙗𝙧𝙞𝙙 𝙉𝙤. 015
In 𝙃𝙮𝙗𝙧𝙞𝙙 𝙉𝙤. 015, Duan departs from the vase entirely. Cast branches, leaves, and seed pods are pinned within a shallow wooden frame, suspended against darkness like specimens in a vitrine. Rendered in cool translucent resin, the botanical fragments float without soil or stem, arranged with the deliberate asymmetry of ikebana yet held in the fixed logic of a herbarium sheet. The composition reads simultaneously as a night garden and a scientific record — a moment of growth arrested and preserved. Here the tension between garden and laboratory becomes explicit: nature is not merely reconstructed but catalogued, each fragment given the quiet dignity of something worth keeping.
