{"product_id":"red-koru","title":"Red Koru","description":"\u003cp\u003eA bold red spiral sweeps across a layered ground of collaged newsprint, yellow ochre washes, and pale cream, the koru shape drawn with a wide, confident brush stroke that anchors the entire composition. Fragments of text peek through the surface beneath it, half-buried under strata of paint, pigment, and paper, as if meaning has been accumulating there for a long time. Smaller marks orbit the central form without interrupting its momentum: a black flower cut-out in one corner, a pink circle, a dark triangular wedge. Corcelle builds her surfaces through a process of painting, collage, de-collage, scraping, and layering, and in this piece, every stage of that process remains visible, quietly present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe koru is a Maori symbol from New Zealand, representing new life, growth, and perpetual movement. Its spiral form is drawn from the unfurling frond of the silver fern: a shape that holds its origin at its center while reaching outward. Corcelle, a French-American artist who has spent years traveling and absorbing visual cultures across Africa, Asia, and the Americas, draws on global sources with the same natural ease that defines her studio process. In choosing this form and painting it in red, she finds a universal image of beginning, something that feels both ancient and completely her own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":233,\"w\":575,\"h\":19,\"abs_x\":621,\"abs_y\":495}'\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/christiane-corcelle\" bis_size='{\"x\":12,\"y\":233,\"w\":239,\"h\":19,\"abs_x\":621,\"abs_y\":495}'\u003eBrowse all works by Christiane Corcelle\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Art Scout","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54174300700982,"sku":null,"price":2200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/3815\/0198\/files\/CorcelleChrisitane_RedKoru.jpg?v=1782918638","url":"https:\/\/www.artscout.pro\/products\/red-koru","provider":"Art Scout","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
