Echo Under Orange Flower (2024, oil on canvas, 50 x 61 cm) evokes a haunting minimalism, where silence and space become expressive elements. Set against a muted, textured background, a ghostlike white form curls upward, its shape reminiscent of a question mark or a whispering figure, centered by a small, vivid red mark that draws the eye like a pulse. Opposite it, near the bottom right, a solitary orange flower blooms—a bold yet delicate presence, grounded by a thin, black stem. The interplay between the ephemeral white form and the resilient flower suggests a poetic dialogue between absence and presence, echo and origin, fragility and persistence.
