Unknown Pages is a 500-page sculptural book that serves as a self-portrait of vulnerability, memory, and the slow revelation of the hidden self. Each blank page is meticulously laser-cut and hollowed out at the center, forming a descending cavity—like a staircase into the artist’s private world. The edges are charred, a quiet reference to time’s erosion and the emotional burn of uncovering personal truths.

At the heart of the book lies a cast resin block, suspended within the void. Layered inside are objects, fragments, and keepsakes—symbols of what the artist holds dear and what they often hide. These layers are only gradually revealed as viewers flip through the pages, metaphorically peeling back layers of protection, expectation, and silence.

The book’s covers, also made of resin, anchor the object physically and metaphorically—holding its weight and secrets. With traditional binding methods failing under the resin’s heft, alternative fasteners were used, further emphasizing the tension between delicacy and strength.

Unknown Pages invites viewers into a slow, reflective experience: to hold something heavy, to move through emptiness, and to witness a form of honesty that resists speed. It is about concealment and confession—about how difficult, and necessary, it is to be seen.
