This work represents the waxing and waning of light as a process of transformation rather than a phenomenon of reflected illumination. The light depicted here functions as its own source, undergoing alteration between states of fullness and deficiency. It is not the reflection of an external origin, but a self-contained presence that changes in character and intensity.

The concept of waxing and waning is understood as a phase occurring when light reveals its condition through contrast. A state of fullness cannot be recognized in isolation. Only through the existence of what is lacking can fullness be perceived as such. Without absence, completion has no reference point and therefore no definable meaning.

The work explores this relationship by allowing filled light and diminished light to coexist within the same field. Their tension and interdependence create a perceptual structure through which the viewer becomes aware that fullness is not an absolute condition, but a state defined by its opposite.
