The Perception of Time and Space: Toward an Ontology of the Invisible

Cross-digital techniques
2024

Influenced by Deleuzian ideas and Bergsonian intuition, these digital works propose that space is not occupied — it is felt, contracted, and expanded. Through visual strategies such as spatial layering, morphing geometries, and digitally induced dislocations, this series reveals the paradox of inhabiting space that is both external and internal, tangible and elusive. Just as time is folded and layered, space too becomes fluid — no longer rigid or Euclidean, but porous, mutable, and deeply personal. The result feels both archival and immediate, like fragments of time caught mid-breath. The use of digital media amplifies this effect, allowing the image to act as both simulacrum and sensation — an interface between what has been and what is still becoming. These pieces generate environments of fluctuating depth, where perception oscillates between immersion and distance. The screen becomes not a window, but a portal — suggesting that every “space” is also a projection of mental and affective states. What viewers encounter is not fixed terrain, but a psychic geography: spaces of memory, emotion, and distortion folded into digital compositions. Like mirrors reflecting invisible coordinates, your work destabilizes the notion of space as objective reality. This work invites us to see beyond what is seen, and to inhabit the invisible coordinates of our being. It is a choreography of thought, a visual meditation, and a proposition for reimagining how we inhabit the digital.
