Ornament – Time (2024)
Ornament — Time is my reflection on what we call Time: a precise measuring tool and simultaneously a phenomenon that submits to no linearity. Does it move evenly? Or does it flow in waves, change direction, expand, contract, disappear?
At the center of the composition is a female figure in a tense, almost unbearable pose of waiting. A moment when time stretches into infinity. The barely noticeable graying of hair hints at the continuity of movement despite human perception. The position of the hands, the turn of the body — subordinated to the logic of a clock face: as if the body itself becomes a mechanism of time. But are we truly capable of feeling it?
The semi-transparent ornament, like a kaleidoscope, holds the gaze, inviting contemplation while playing with our own Time.
For this "kaleidoscope," I chose the symbol of harmony — two intersecting triangles inscribed in a circle (a symbol of continuity). This is about the constancy of movement, about the naturalness of the process, although not fully comprehensible to us. Time is a unique phenomenon that exists separately from us, beyond control.
Ornament — Time is my attempt to stop the elusive and look at Time as if it breathes beside us.
