light, too, moves in cycles.
Time does not simply pass;
it returns, like the tide.

The subtle distortions in the glass were created by the designer’s own hands. Wearing protective gloves, the designer gently pressed the transparent layer of the glass, creating momentary deformations that were captured in the material.
These delicate gestures refract the light into soft, organic forms reminiscent of waves.
The light becomes a quiet rhythm—connecting the sun and moon, the sea, and the people gathered beneath it.
