The Power of Perception

Watching Moments Come And Go is a contemplative work that urges us to scrutinize the authenticity of our experiences, nudging us to question whether we are truly perceiving the world as it is—or as it’s been constructed for us. This artwork tackles the fluid nature of reality, emphasizing how easily perception can be manipulated by external forces, be it through social conditioning, media influence, or the inherent biases of our own minds. The piece masterfully captures the transient, often elusive quality of moments, blurring the lines between what is real and what is imagined.

At its core, the work speaks to the fragile nature of our understanding of the world. It challenges the deeply held belief that our perceptions are purely objective, prompting us to consider how much of what we "know" is shaped by external narratives. This notion of manipulation raises unsettling questions: Who controls the lens through which we see? And to what extent are we mere spectators, passively watching life’s moments come and go, rather than actively shaping them?

This piece serves as a commentary on the complexities of perception, urging a critical re-evaluation of how we come to understand the world. It asks us to question the motives and origins behind the information we consume and challenges the viewer to confront their own passivity.
