Don't Breathe To The Rhythm Of The World

How is our bond with the world shaped?

Each breath we take is an act of connection – we draw a portion of the world inside us, and we release an altered part back into it. This continuous exchange is both intimate and indifferent, binding us to everything around us while reminding us of our own dependency.

My next series will explore the fragile tension between turning away from and relating to others – living beings, nature, and our realm. How do we navigate the balance between closeness and distance in a world that both attracts and repels us? Sometimes we deliberately fall out of sync to protect ourselves, sometimes we become the pulse of the rhythm, risking an inner emptiness.

In this new body of work, twelve sculptures will mark the passage from the digital sphere into the physical: critters born within a virtual world will manifest as 3D prints in our shared reality. Building on my first cycle Rhymes of Rupture, which tackled the theme of alienation, I now step beyond the two-dimensional space. These entities will be tactile fragments of that ongoing negotiation, twelve distinct materialized moments of surrender and resistance.

Release planned for early 2026.
