Drawing on skulls, anamorphosis, Holbein, Kabbalistic symbolism and the Tree of Life, they ask viewers to confront mortality through science, perception and spiritual imagination. In these editions, death is often hidden, distorted or only visible from a precise point of view. A skull may appear through reflection, a symbol may emerge from geometry, or an image may resolve only when the viewer changes position. This act of looking becomes part of the meaning: death itself is something we struggle to see clearly, something that shifts according to belief, memory, fear and perspective. The works also suggest that life and death may not be opposites, but part of a single continuous reality. Through ideas such as conservation of energy, transformation and the flow between physical and spiritual states, they invite reflection on what remains, what changes, and what might echo beyond us. Rather than offering answers, these works create space for questioning. They continue a long artistic tradition, from Holbein’s The Ambassadors to contemporary optical sculpture, in which the skull is not merely a symbol of darkness, but a reminder to live with awareness. Here, death becomes a lens: a way to examine time, love, energy, belief and the fragile beauty of being alive.
