Description:

“There are silences that speak louder than the wind — and live in the shape of a leaf.”

In the simplicity of a curve rests the echo of the forest.
Silent Leaf is more than a form — it is a pause.
Made from recycled paper, hand-molded and painted with care and intention, this piece honors the natural cycle of life: what falls, transforms; what is light, carries meaning.

The solitary, vibrant leaf reminds us there is beauty in letting go — in that which does not shout to be seen.
Here, sustainable art becomes both symbol and substance.
Each wrinkle on the surface is a memory, each brushstroke, a whisper from the earth.
