Artwork description
Time #One Hundred Eighty (Tower 2) presents a monumental grayscale composition that evokes the sensation of ascending through layers of light and shadow. Vertical and horizontal gradients intersect like scaffolding, suggesting the outlines of a vast architectural form dissolving into atmosphere. The piece conveys both solidity and ephemerality, as though the tower itself exists only in the flux of time.
Subtle shifts in brightness create a rhythm of steps or tiers, pulling the eye upward through a corridor of illusionary space. The blurred transitions between dark and light reinforce the sensation of time unfolding—gradual, infinite, and intangible. At the center, faint beams resemble a distant source, a horizon of possibility barely within reach.
The artwork meditates on endurance and transience, merging architectural presence with temporal abstraction. Time #One Hundred Eighty (Tower 2) becomes less a depiction of structure and more a reflection on humanity’s attempt to build permanence within the relentless passage of time.
