"Eternal Currents" – Handcrafted Wooden Relief Carving of Ocean Whirlpools

This wooden relief carving takes ocean currents and whirlpools as its central imagery, capturing the fluidity and impermanence of water. The undulating curves intertwine, weaving a pattern that appears orderly yet remains ever-changing—much like the workings of the world, governed by laws yet filled with unpredictable transformations. Whirlpools emerge within the currents, both converging and dispersing, symbolizing the cyclical nature of life and the rise and fall of individuals within the river of time.

Shapeless yet all-encompassing, the sea molds everything in its path; its movement is both gentle and devouring. Through the natural grain of the wood and the interplay of depth in the carving, this piece conveys the fleeting, shifting nature of ocean currents, hinting at the transience of the world and the endless flow of life. In this ever-moving existence, we are but specks of dust within the waves—small yet inseparable from the current. The only constant is the ceaseless motion itself.
