This box is designed to be picked up, held, and turned around. There is no correct orientation. Holding the piece is an exercise in contradiction. What the eye sees is soft, textured, malleable; what the hand feels is smooth, hard, and solid. Feeling the sharp edges of the box while imagining the soft material, sealed beyond reach, is at the same time frustrating and intriguing.
