At first glance, Broken reads as orderly: a quiet field of textbook pages, a crisp geometry of frame samples, a turned wood form suspended like a figure in a doorway. Then the viewer notices what was there all along, the glass is fractured. A sweep of black fringe hangs low like a stitched hem, visually "mending" the damage without hiding it. Built from reclaimed materials, this piece is a small meditation on repair, perception, and the ways we learn to call something broken, even when it still holds beauty.
