About the Artwork:
‘Aletheia’ – In Greek, ‘truth’ or ‘disclosure’, commonly employed in philosophy to define the manifestation of concealed reality.
‘Aletheia’ describes the way the unseen becomes seen — when truth appears like stars breaking the dark. Inspired by the Greek notion of ἀλήθεια, or the unveiling, the disclosure of truth, this work embodies the subdued, sacred gravity of what has always existed, sitting quietly, waiting to be uncovered.
