⬤ “Shelter” is a poetic artwork that explores the endless longing for answers and the melancholy of questions that may never be fully resolved. Will we ever find stillness in our longing? From the background to the forefront, can we ever truly uncover all the answers we seek?

This artwork reflects a state where stillness and constant movement coexist, in a space where we feel sheltered even as our longing continues. Isn’t this sense of longing itself a form of comfort? It suggests that curiosity is a fundamental part of the human experience, a never-ending dialogue between questions and answers that may never completely satisfy us but wonderfully enriches us infinitely.

Is there a kind of fulfillment in this ongoing journey, found not in the final but in the endless curiosity of the human mind? Can we find a sense of shelter in the acceptance, that we may never fully know?

This video captures a moor river in the deepest depths of Bavaria, surrounded only by land, forest and the beautiful flora and fauna. I am so obsessed by this river! Filmed by myself, post-processed with TouchDesigner.

The music composed by the wonderful Korean artist Shi-Ne, perfectly complements the visual experience. I chose to name the video artwork after her piece. We met this summer in Munich and I am so grateful that she immideatly knew what energy this artwork carries. Thank you so, so much Shine for this lovely collaboration!
