Eggshell Mural

A large framed eggshell-lacquer mural, lit, on a wall in a city apartment

Thousands of eggshell fragments, placed one by one into lacquer, form a luminous crackle across the surface of this mural — the humblest of materials raised to fine art and framed like a painting.

Eggshell lacquer rewards patience above all: each fragment is set by hand, and the pattern emerges slowly, the way frost grows across a window. Up close it is a mosaic; across the room, a field of light.

Bring a piece like this into the world

Commission a work, ask about this one, or simply say hello — I read every message myself.
