Within Horizons

Oil on canvas + AR,
Size: 115 x 180 cm

This painting captures a moment of suspension—a state where everything seems still yet remains in motion. The central form floats freely in space, detached from the weight of the earth, spinning infinitely like a 3D object that can be viewed from all angles. It represents a state of detachment, almost perfection, but in a way that is neither smooth nor flawless.

Unlike the other works, this piece is intentionally rough and textured. The thick, uneven layers of paint convey a rawness, as if the floating form is simultaneously grappling with the weight of its materiality. This "imperfection" makes it feel more authentic and tangible, suggesting that even a moment of perfection can have its cracks and edges.

The connection between sky and earth in the background provides a frame for the form—a space where its movement can unfold. This work is not merely about beauty or perfection but explores how something can exist in balance while remaining in flux. The sense of suspension evokes an infinite moment, serving as a reminder that even the seemingly perfect carries depth and texture.
