Title: Motion in Stability

This piece is a combination of painting and assemblage, created using beer bottle caps and designed based on optical illusion and visual dynamics. As the viewing angle changes, the forms appear to rotate and move, while the underlying structure remains completely static. This contrast between stability and motion reflects key concepts in mathematics and physics, particularly in studies related to light dispersion and random visual phenomena.

The approach of this work aligns with symmetry, repetition, and unconventional mathematical patterns. The circular arrangement of each element creates a rhythm and repetition that, while orderly, also conveys a sense of visual randomness. This interplay between order and chaos is one of the core themes in dynamic systems and probability theories.

The use of recycled materials not only enriches the conceptual depth of the artwork but also highlights the idea of repurposing industrial forms within an artistic context. This piece invites the viewer to question the role of perspective and subjective perception in understanding reality.
