Traces in Transparency
The Leaf Lines series explores the quiet poetry of layering, using only transparent printed papers and delicate tissue. Each work is built through a process of re-layering — without any further additions of paper or media — allowing the material itself to guide the composition.
Through this restraint, subtle shifts of light, texture, and opacity emerge, echoing the fragile yet enduring patterns found in nature. The overlapping forms create a sense of rhythm and depth.
Leaf Lines is both minimal and rich: a meditation on presence, absence, and the beauty that arises when we simply let materials speak for themselves.
