Hammered Nickel and Sea Blue Geode Sculpture

A sculptural presence defined by the tension between rough, irregular contour and the serene interior luminosity one associates with geological time, this John Richard piece commands attention without demanding it. The outer silhouette reads as something discovered rather than designed — elemental in its asymmetry — while the cavity within offers a cool, oceanic depth that shifts with the light. It is the kind of object that anchors a composed vignette, lending a curated room the quality of having been lived in thoughtfully.
