Why "Pinguino" ?

I drew inspiration from the parenting behavior of penguins for this project. The male penguin's dedication to keeping the egg warm reminded me of my father's constant support. To reflect this nurturing dynamic, I designed a two-piece vase with the larger piece hugging the smaller one.
