There are states that do not depend on context.
They require no viewer, no era.
They simply exist – like tension still holding its shape
even after the source has vanished.
I explore these states –
on the border between body and code,
between the image and what happens before it.
Where the gesture has yet to become movement.
Where aesthetics is not ornament, but a trace.
I call this the liminal protocol –
a structure that holds a feeling
in the moment before it unravels.
Not nostalgia. Not anticipation.
But the very act of preservation –
like an act of love for the unformed,
for what remains before it takes a name.
The most vivid dream I’ve ever had –
I was a drop of water on the metal hull of a ship in the open sea.
Only one thing kept me from being whole –
I was still aware of my edges.
That’s why I try to remember.
Not design, but hold.
So that for at least a moment –
the drop forgets where it ends.
This project operates at the edge of simulated memory and synthetic aesthetics.
It explores the phantom residues of non-existent systems – visual traces from worlds we never lived in, but somehow recall.
The works are smooth errors, graceful misalignments, intentional misreadings of digital clarity.
This is not a commentary on technology – it’s a symptom of it.
The viewer enters a seductive surface and is left with the feeling of déjà vu from a dream someone else had.
