These materials carry ancient breaths. Within each particle lies time, sensation, and the fading trace of existence. I strive to hold onto these ephemeral remnants nestled within the matter.
Yet the powders do not stay where I intend. They scatter and vanish—just as the memories we wish to preserve blur, while those we long to forget remain vividly etched. The material escapes my control, and in that surrender, I begin to contemplate the temporality, the sensory essence, and the existential presence that matter holds.
This work is a journey of layering the weight of memory within scattered material—a quiet attempt to grasp the vanishing traces of being."
