Artist statemet “A sight” creates a world shaped by our visual fields. “Reflection on the mirror” creates a world shaped by its frame. A cut and preserved world, and the world around it. A piece exhibited in a space called gallery, and the world breathes inside the piece. Putting essence of the world outside the gallery inside a piece... By doing so, the outer world resides in the piece and the world goes on.
