The hidden meanings behind seemingly insignificant human actions, errors, and forgetfulness that we encounter in our daily lives can often be linked to unconscious thoughts, desires, and conflicts. We can gain insight into our deeper psychological states by examining these seemingly trivial slip-ups.

The Psychopathology of Everyday Life, Sigmund Freud, 1914.


Desire is fluid—both elusive and vivid, both near and distant.
 
“Tentative” explores the ambiguity of desire—an existence that never settles, always lingering at the edge of definition. Bodies, objects, and spaces intertwine but never fully claim one another. Touch and resistance, concealment and revelation, form a state of perpetual uncertainty, much like desire itself—present in the moment of approach, yet slipping into the unknown upon contact. This work invites the viewer into a realm of hesitation, where ambiguity and absence shape an unspoken longing.
