Limit series:
Perceptions of the unknown
We are living organisms in constant prediction.
Actions and predictions are inseparable — shaping each other continuously, consciously or not.
The perception of the unknown disrupts this cycle. It clashes with prediction and often provokes estrangement. Yet, through repetition, a kind of ritual emerges. In time, its expressions begin to reveal new understandings.
A limit can be a function — an approximation of what something might be, but is not yet.
It can also be a restriction — a narrowing of all the possible worlds that could be, but have not become.
This research into limit and the unknown was sparked by something already unfolding since 2018. From embodied experiences, drawings began to emerge in personal notebooks. Each one revealing surreal, unfamiliar landscapes.
When others encountered them, they offered names — poetic, absurd, metaphorical sounds:
Trompet-hunger. Sumo-violin. Penguin-automation.
An attempt to name the abstract.
A weaving of stories.
A dance between what is, and what is not.
It all began with two circles.
