This work depicts light as a cyclical phenomenon, shifting between brightness and darkness in a rhythm comparable to the waxing and waning of the moon. The proportion of illuminated and dimmed areas changes over time, suggesting that light is not static or uniform, but constantly in transition between emergence and retreat.

By directing light toward light, the work allows emitting light and reflected light to coexist within the same space. Through this overlap, light no longer appears as a purely radiant presence. Instead, it acquires depth, carrying areas of shadow within itself. These shadows are not cast onto surrounding surfaces, but generated internally, becoming part of light’s own structure.

Rather than defining light through external contrast, the work reveals how light becomes perceptible by containing its own darkness. Light is recognized as light not because it eliminates shadow, but because it holds it. The work explores this internal tension as a condition through which light defines its own presence.
