“August” began as a sudden vision at the beginning of summer a clear image, like a whisper from the unconscious.
A moment of visual clarity that took shape before I could fully understand its meaning.
In the days that followed, that vision revealed itself as a reflection of my inner state:
a fracture between myself and the surrounding world.
Even the presence of those closest to me seemed unable to reach me, as did the familiar atmosphere of a seaside summer where I was staying.
Everything felt distant, suspended.
I felt the need for silence for a necessary emptiness in which I could find myself again.
This work emerges from that condition:
a process of translating an inner vision,
an attempt to give form, through images, to a secret language that spoke before it could be understood.
