gravitational singularity
The imagined relationship between the finitude of the observer and the infinity of the black hole, a gravitational singularity, establishes a tension; this scene, actualized in a gallery between the visitor and the painting, offers a sensory vision of their approach. The visual effect produced by the hypnotic geometry of infinitisation focuses the observer's vision and distorts their spatial perception, freezing it in a sense, while only the perceptual dimension of time operates.
The two singularities—the human observer and the black hole—coincide without necessarily losing themselves forever in each other; a type of metaphysics of “the presence itself.” This paradigm serves to describe the phenomenology of all possibilities, future, and desire... “The appearance” suggests a presence potentially deployed to infinity that questions the visible, prompting viewers to interrogate their perception of reality.
As the visitor contemplates the painting, they are invited to explore the depths of this conceptual relationship, delving into the metaphysical and philosophical dimensions that César Henao captures in his art. The experience becomes an immersive journey that transcends the boundaries of traditional representation, inviting the observer to contemplate infinite possibilities and the very essence of presence.
