There is an insurmountable veil between perception and things.
People cannot see both sides of the world at the same time. Every time you look, you cover up the other side.
This installation will eventually take the form of a screen structure, with the wooden frame and glass forming a flowing interface. The artist uses soap, mirrors, transparent images and paint to seal both sides of the glass, creating an abstract picture that is mutually internal and external and misplaced.
Time is deposited and oxidized in it, and perception is free and broken in it.
The viewer witnesses and loses while walking; reveals and conceals.
"Veiled Sight" explores the finiteness and transience of perception, questioning: between the two sides that cannot be reached at the same time, can we truly reach existence itself?
