A figure sits before the remnants of history, the body fractured by reflection into a doubled head, the posture almost ritualistic. The gaze is focused yet displaced; the body remains present, while consciousness seems to hover elsewhere.


Between carved stone and the faint glow of a screen, the image holds a quiet tension. What is reflected is not merely form, but a subtle dislocation — where presence and absence occupy the same space.
