About the Item
Sanctuary
A world that invented itself.
It emerged from a deep inner need: to be somewhere you don’t have to be afraid.
A space where it’s possible to be alive, trusting, and real.
Where fairy tale is not decoration, but soul.
Where goodness doesn’t need protection.
Where I still believe.
Visual & Technical Description
Sanctuary is a composition born from the need to find a space where one can be alive, trusting, and real.
The surface bears the traces of the material’s resistance, holding the tension between intention and the refusal to control. Monochrome doesn’t mute — it focuses, refusing to let the viewer escape into interpretation and instead keeping them inside the state itself.
Light, moving across the relief, doesn’t illuminate so much as expose — revealing a depth where silence hides.
This is not an escape into fantasy, but an architecture of belief: in kindness, in magic, in people.
The work belongs to the artist’s ongoing exploration of tactile surrealism, where form is not illusion, but a trace of inner movement.
It is not about something. It is a way of being.
