Barriers and views
Looking in
Childhood memories
The sense of looking at something just out of reach contrasts the sharp lines of the fence and the soft blur of the background.
“We look at the world once, in childhood. The rest is memory.” – Louise Gluck
Barrier conduit
Division connection
Confined by limitations
The chain-link fence, a ubiquitous fixture of the modern landscape, is a curious object. It is at once a barrier and a conduit, a symbol of both division and connection. In its stark simplicity, it speaks to the human desire for order and control, while also hinting at the fragility of these constructs.

Subjective encounter
Existential questioning
This juxtaposition of movement potential and present stillness highlights the tension between our aspirations and limitations.

Liminal interval
Collective intertwine
Connector threshold
The window itself, a transparent barrier between the interior and exterior, is a liminal space, a threshold between two worlds. It is both a divider and a connector, a boundary that invites transgression.
“The window was like a television screen, playing out a silent movie.” – Haruki Murakami
Wide-brimmed
Ephemeral nature
Latest trends
The mannequin, a static figure, ironically embodies the very essence of change.
“The true reality is not the instantaneous, but the continuous.” – Henri Bergson

Wisdom understanding
The image is a perceptual object, a phenomenon that is constituted through our experience of it.
“We must learn to bracket everything that belongs to the natural attitude, so that we may turn our attention to the pure phenomena themselves.” – Edmund Husserl
Spirit manifestation
Bustling activity
City street
The storefront window, with its reflections and distortions, serves as a metaphor for the way we perceive and understand the world.
“Art is not a copy of nature, but a creation of the spirit.” – Benedetto Crocea
