Summary

AI-generated from the abstract

This work integrates contemplative practice from Western and Eastern philosophies—addressing apperception, consciousness, and presence—with an art practice grounded in diagrammatic contemplation. The art aims not merely to produce an optical effect but to engage viewers in experiencing non-dual consciousness, a state beyond subject-object duality.
