Ten Scenes Along the Way

Ten passing scenes, a moment held in the hand.

Ten Scenes Along the Way brings together Pine Wind, Bamboo Shadows, Listening to Rain, Moon Crossing, Watching the Tide, Snow Bridge, Lotus Dew, Homeward Sail, Distant Lantern and Clearing Mist. A four-lobed outline, graphite-black colored brass and restrained warm-brass accents connect all ten. Only the central mounting aperture is retained, leaving a continuous field for branches, rainfall, tides and bridge silhouettes.

Each scene has its own focus and open space: some follow the rim, some gather in a corner, some move along a diagonal, and others open into the distance. A simpler motif continues each scene on the reverse. Black wrapping, ivory diamond windows and coordinated brass fittings connect the entire collection.
