To me, as a collector, this beautiful ceramic vase “Flutter” by Tania Whalen is very much worth acquiring because it reinforces a way of thinking I return to often: that form without excess is enough. I mean that literally as I’ve learned in my work and life that adding more doesn’t make something better; it often dilutes clarity. When writing an email, making a decision, or organizing my space, I pause when everything essential is already there. That pause is hard, but it’s where restraint becomes precision. And this vase practices the same discipline.
