Artist’s Statement:
In this piece, the city is not merely observed—it is examined. The moon, ancient and patient, probes the glass facades of towering skyscrapers, its presence both intimate and distant. The buildings, rigid and self-assured by day, become vulnerable at night, offering their surfaces as mirrors to something far older than themselves.
There is an ambiguity in that gaze. The moon does not blink, does not judge, does not reveal intent. It may be curious, tracing the lines of human ambition etched in steel and glass. It may be indifferent, reflecting without attachment. Or perhaps it holds a quieter authority—bearing witness to cycles far beyond the city’s restless rhythm.
By saturating the scene in blue, the image drifts into a dream-state where distinctions blur: observer and observed, subject and reflection. The city sleeps, but something remains awake—watching, measuring, remembering.
Summary:
A silent exchange unfolds in reflection—where the city dreams, and the unblinking moon observes.
