The Turning 2026. An ongoing year-long series that began on January.2026

Each month explores a single color on one piece of silk, seeking colors that reflect the feeling of each season.
I work on it every day, pouring a layer without pre-treatment or chemical fixatives and allowing the pigments to flow, diffuse, oxidize, fade, and transform over time.
Each work becomes a record of duration, change, and the agency of the material.
