Light is not what it seems

At first glance, “Light Is Not What It Seems” offers a sense of clarity—subtle contrasts, soft tones, and delicate luminosity. But as your eyes linger, the boundaries begin to shift. Light, which usually reveals, here becomes something ambiguous. It masks as much as it illuminates.

This watercolor explores the idea that perception is never absolute. What feels transparent might in fact be layered. What seems certain can dissolve under a different angle. Inspired by the quiet lessons learned through painting and composing alike, the work suggests that truth often hides in plain sight—filtered by our expectations, emotions, and the stories we tell ourselves.
