What the Light Seeks

What does it mean to be seen?
To be witnessed, without needing to be understood?

This piece came slowly.
Arcs drawn from my daughter’s hula hoop, lines built up with oil stick, like crayon on cloth.
A veil. An eye. A sense of something held.

Are we at a threshold? In transition? In solitude?
There’s symmetry, but nothing fixed. The space feels paused. Quiet. Reflective.

This series marks a transition from coloured pencil on paper to oil on linen, introducing a more physical and tactile approach to drawing. It explores light, perception and presence through layered drawings in colour, where forms emerge from arcs, veils and built-up linework, suggesting thresholds between inner and outer worlds, visibility and quiet observation.

What the Light Seeks was exhibited in Marvila, Lisbon as part of Corrente de Ar v.5.
