About the artwork

The world breathes in silent anticipation. A delicate hint of light sweeps across the horizon, while the sky is slowly bathed in soft pastel colours - a promise of the day to come. Here, on the beach of Koh Ngai, where the sea kisses the sand with gentle waves, there is an almost tangible calm.
The damp sand still bears the patterns of the night - fine grooves marked by the rhythm of the tides. The structures are artistic traces of the wind, ephemeral signs that will soon be erased by the sunlight and the steady breath of the sea. Every step leaves a trace, but it drifts away in the gentle embrace of the morning.
The water glistens in a dance of light and shadow, as if countless tiny stars are floating on the waves. The ocean reflects the first hint of dawn, merging with the horizon in a play of gold and silver. The day has not yet fully awoken, but nature is preparing - quietly, full of devotion.
The silhouettes of small islands rest in the distance, black against the pastel-coloured firmament. The sky is a painting of pale pink, lavender and pale blue - a play of colours that changes with every minute. The world pauses, in a precious moment between night and day.
Then - a first ray of sunshine, barely more than a hint of gold on the edge of the world. The magic of the moment dissipates, fading into the gentle dawn of a new morning. But for a moment, time stood still and the world shone in the splendour of dawn.
