Nocturnes

The Nocturnes emerges from the experience of nocturnal perception. The world relinquishes its functional certainty and reveals itself as an open field of light, time, and inner resonance. Darkness is not encountered as absence, but as the carrier of a singular, elusive glow. The works unfold within a tension between appearance and withdrawal, between external scene and inner experience. Time detaches itself from linear order and becomes perceptible as a suspended, dilated presence. The series is articulated in two groups: Light in the Depths, where urban spaces open through reflection and memory, and Vigils, which dwell in a state of wakefulness, probing the fragile threshold at which the visible and the invisible converge. Night thus becomes a site of encounter in which world and self meet—not as fixed entities, but as relational states, open and indeterminate in time.
