Second Nature Vase

̈Sapientia sub pelle dormit. ̈ Wisdom sleeps beneath the skin. Second Nature brings together Scheherazade’s wisdom, Defne Kaman’s ancient bond with nature, and Tenar’s trust in her intuition. Though they come from different stories, they remind us of the same truth: true wisdom is an invisible force that protects and heals life. “Living, being in the world, was a much greater and stranger thing than she had ever dreamed.” — Tenar, The Tombs of Atuan Second Nature goes beyond its function as a vase, standing on its own as a sculpture in any living space. When brought together with the other characters in the series, it tells a shared story born from different narratives.
