This work gathers remnants of language and image into a suspended present. Facts, symbols, and observations drift without hierarchy, pointing to a condition in which reality is apprehended indirectly—through measure, repetition, and abstraction. The statistic marks not knowledge but distance: a counting that replaces encounter. The collage holds open a question of presence, asking what it means to witness a world increasingly known through fragments, and whether attention itself can survive its translation into data.
