Lux Mortem

Lux Mortem moves within the tension between life and transience. Drawing on the tradition of the vanitas still life, blossoms, leaves, and fragments appear at the moment of their decay. Light does not mark a state but a passage—a moment in which visibility itself becomes an event. Yet the end is not understood here as admonition, but as part of a continuous becoming. The light in these works has no singular source. It permeates the scene like a quiet revelation, granting the perishable a singular dignity. The flow of time becomes visible as a cyclical movement of emergence and dissolution.
