Rhythm of the Threshold

Rhythm of the Threshold

120 x 160 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 This pictorial structure, formed through overlapping lines, operates within the space Giorgio Agamben refers to as the “threshold” — the gap between existence and non-existence. Positioned between flow and stillness, between opening and closure, these layers explore the conditions of being through rhythms of passage and suspension.

Penetration

Penetration

100 x 160 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 This tremor is not a concrete dismantling, but a quiet adjustment unfolding within the rhythm of unstable stability—an understated gesture through which the invisible seeps into the system.

Hesitation

Hesitation

70 x 100 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 Rather than reproducing a physical space, it seeks to evoke the psychological density that inhabits that space. The structure is not oppression, and the boundary is not fixed. A door remains a door, yet also becomes a question, a pause, and a marker of possibility.

Distance Toward the Interior

Distance Toward the Interior

70 x 90 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 The structure, repeatedly layered toward the center, suggests depth—but that depth is never fully attained. Distance exists, yet it is entangled with time and sensation. The blue surface is the temperature of condensed emotion and the density of an unmoving stillness.

Deviation

Deviation

70 x 100 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 Divided Surface documents multiple times, movements, and sensations that exist within a single structure. It focuses not on connection but on rupture, constructing pathways of immaterial sensations that flow along the cracks. Wholeness is deviated, and fragments form new relations.

Residue

Residue

50 x 60 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 Some things appear erased, yet are never fully deleted. What remains is not debris, but a present sensation that has yet to be defined. This work explores the visual strata that emerge somewhere between removal and preservation, absence and persistence. Residue becomes a temporal trace—and at the same time, a spatial form of resistance. Even in the absence of something, the surrounding remnants continuously evoke its presence.

Hidden Path

Hidden Path

160 x 100 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 Hidden Path explores the structure of movement through metaphor. The repeated vertical lines evoke order and system, yet subtle variations within them suggest that even within controlled structures, flows and fractures persist. The lines hold traces of what has passed and a sense of direction yet unreached. Within the accumulated rhythm, boundaries remain unfixed, and the possibility of movement emerges.

Before It

Before It

100 x 140 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 The boundary is not something to be crossed, but something to be faced. This work is a visual meditation on the threshold between stillness and perception—a moment where forward movement ceases. Directed lines and fragmented color fields form an abstract terrain, while a red fissure cutting across the surface becomes an event that divides time. The distinction between inside and outside blurs, and what emerges in the gap is not passage, but dwelling.

Map of Sensation

Map of Sensation

90 x 120 cm | Acrylic on canvas | 2025 Through a linear structure reminiscent of a city cross-section, this work traces how invisible flows infiltrate or evade within controlled order. The repetition of vertical lines speaks the language of discipline. While repetition simulates stability, geometric incisions appearing between intervals mark the trace of exceptions that seep into that stability. The boundary between closed and open, passable and blocked, is never clear.
