Installation

Safe marks an early articulation of concerns that later emerge in The Black Square Series. Developed in response to the disappearance of one of my paintings from a group exhibition, the installation reflects on authorship, vulnerability, and the conditions under which art is valued, protected, or lost.

Working with inexpensive materials and a deliberately limited palette, the installation foregrounds context over permanence. The use of high-visibility colour alongside black introduces a visual tension between warning and concealment, drawing attention to how meaning is constructed through framing, expectation, and absence.

Presented as a sequence, the individual works form a fragmented narrative around security—both literal and psychological—where the question is not only what is protected, but what remains exposed.
