Budding explores the nascent stage of botanical emergence through Owen Mlungisi's contemplative approach to sculptural form in dolomite. This refined carving captures the poignant moment when a flower begins its journey toward full expression, celebrating potential and the quiet promise inherent in new growth. The artist's sensitive technique reveals dolomite's warm, luminous qualities whilst emphasizing the subtle geometry of a bud preparing to unfold. Rather than depicting botanical specificity, Mlungisi distils the universal experience of emergence—the tension between containment and expansion, dormancy and vitality. The sculpture's compact, concentrated form invites intimate viewing, encouraging viewers to contemplate the profound significance of small beginnings. The piece resonates with collectors seeking meaningful art that honours natural cycles and the transformative power of patient growth. A meditation on potential, hope, and the quiet beauty of becoming.
