Description

Physical Piece — Sold This work engages with the fundamental rupture of the subject at the moment of encountering the “Other”; a moment in which the illusion of a unified self collapses, revealing that the Other is not external, but inscribed within the concealed structure of the self. In this sense, the Other is not an autonomous presence, but a site through which the internal fissure of subjectivity becomes visible. The figures, arranged in a condition of symmetry, appear as two suspended modes of consciousness facing one another. Yet this symmetry does not signify equilibrium; rather, it becomes the visual articulation of an unresolved tension. What appears as order on the surface unfolds, at its core, into an ontological anxiety emerging from the destabilization of the boundary between “self” and “Other,” where the act of recognition simultaneously becomes a threat to identity. Within this structure, color operates as a psychic force: blue embodies withdrawal, silence, and the sedimentation of memory, while orange marks the field of tension, desire, and the collision of conscious and unconscious forces. The central space is not a neutral interval, but a phenomenological rupture—a suspended moment in which the subject hovers between self-affirmation and self-denial. This work is not a representation of faces, but an inquiry into the existential condition of the human being; a moment in which the gaze of the Other activates not an image, but the most unstable and repressed layers of the self.
