ECHO

In Echo, a solitary astronaut is depicted in free flight against a dark blue-green sky, recalling the atmospheric palette of Rain Vector. While no literal rain exists in open space, the figure is rendered with a rain-like visual effect—streaks and distortions that evoke motion, continuity of experience, and the perceptual encounter with an alien, unknown environment. This visual device maintains thematic and narrative resonance with Rain Vector, linking the works across both concept and experience.

Executed on structured paper, the medium reinforces the conceptual depth: each sheet represents a fragment of reality, a discrete moment in space-time, while the bound layers form a continuous narrative that mirrors the astronaut’s journey. The structured paper emphasizes the persistence of human observation, memory, and engagement even in extreme or unfamiliar conditions.

Through a restrained palette of dark blue, green, and grey, the composition balances the sensation of weightless motion with quiet introspection. The astronaut’s calm presence amidst visual distortion conveys human engagement, exploration, and reflection, highlighting the subtle, profound experience of encountering the unknown.
