The biomorphic shape exhibits the appearance or qualities of a living spaces in nature like weaver bird nests, anthills, swallows nests, and homesteads of the Basotho and Zulu people in South Africa.
The piece is made with highly sanded wood and mildly textured soil. Legae is made with juxtaposing textures to evoke touching. It is a storage space of small objects.
