About the artwork

A tenuous horizon, almost dissolved in misty blue, separates sky from a field that no longer seems of earth. The digital canvas breathes silence, but no ordinary silence: it is the charged tension of movement that could arise at any moment. At the centre floats a silhouette - slender, graceful, nothing more than a brushstroke of dark against light. The harrier. Not caught in lines, but composed of pixels dancing, like dust particles in sunlight.

Its wings spread like open phrases, full of promise. They are not made of feathers but of light, transparent and fragile, like glass absorbing colour. Speed lurks in every curve of the digital play of lines, as if the bird was not made to be seen, but to disappear. Below him waves a field of algorithmic ears of corn: not gold, but shades of copper, ochre, rust - hues that glow like memories of autumn.

The sky above pulses with invisible codes, lines flowing like wind, elusive but palpable in their rhythm. The work seems silent, but in silence you can hear the whirring: the whisper of dates, the gentle threat of movement. The harrier does not look at us; it hunts elsewhere, beyond the screen, beyond the now.

This artwork is not an image of a bird. It is an echo of freedom, caught in a network of light. An ode to disappearance, to that one second when nature and technology coincide - and dissolve again into emptiness.
