These forms appear objective and universal, yet they are also constructions through which we attempt to locate ourselves within something we cannot fully comprehend.

From these codes, I construct maps without a fixed territory. Within them, geometry coexists with organic forms, figures, fragments, and empty space. Lines cease to function solely as coordinates or trajectories and begin to behave as fibers: forming patterns, membranes, and structures that connect what initially appears to be separate.

This notion of a woven structure introduces a question about what exists between things. I imagine space not as an absolute void, but as a field crossed by invisible relationships, tensions, and connections.
