begins where light has already disappeared.

Direct exposure to daylight leaves a chemical inscription within the photographic paper, darkening the emulsion until the image seems lost. Through scratching and erosion, the gesture gradually reveals this inscription, allowing light to reappear—not as a representation of the world, but as a physical trace reanimated by the viewer's imagination.
