Curatorial Note:
Those Who Dwell in the Invisible is a meditative work that appears at first glance to be a collection of abstract gestures, but upon closer inspection, reveals spectral figures, silent dancers, and ascending beings. Painted on clear plastic and held within a black vertical frame, the piece plays with light, reflection, and perception.

This work invites the viewer into a dialogue between what is seen and what is intuited. Each brushstroke becomes a trace — of memory, of spiritual presence, of the unseen people who surround us in silence. ArNoUx doesn’t demand that the viewer “see everything,” but gently offers visions to those willing to stay long enough. The plastic surface acts as a window between two worlds: one physical, one metaphysical.

Locuratorial Method:
This piece belongs to a developing practice ArNoUx calls “locuratorial expression” — where curation is rooted in the visionary disorder of the soul. Rather than organize meaning in linear logic, ArNoUx releases the mind into emotional symbolism and intuitive memory. The plastic becomes a veil, and the figures — though fragmented — are alive, appearing only to those willing to believe that imagination is a language of truth.
