Curatorial Statement:
In Revelation Through Layers, ArNoUx challenges the viewer to engage in an intimate, rotational discovery. The artwork’s layered acrylic on clear plastic transforms based on the viewer’s angle, light, and imagination. Hints of silhouettes, sacred iconography, or even mythical beasts emerge momentarily—only to dissolve back into abstraction.

Through bold contrasts of crimson, ivory, and deep carbon black, the piece evokes both internal struggle and spiritual emergence. The fluidity of perception becomes the central narrative. By enclosing the work in a frame, ArNoUx further invites reflection, as if peering into a relic or sacred mirror. This microcosm of chaos and order captures the essence of the German Expressionist tradition while expanding its language through modern materials.
