Infra-Image (N24°56'41.78", E121°18'2.17") marks the beginning of the series, investigating how images come into being through the act of viewing by overlaying architectural surfaces with projected light.

I stripped the wall’s paint to expose the raw cement beneath, then projected a “blank light source” onto the exposed surface. This intervention enables the wall to appear simultaneously as a physical structure and as its own projected image within the viewer’s perceptual field. In doing so, the wall seems to detach from its material condition, oscillating between the spatial registers of matter and image—unsettling the boundary between surface-as-image and surface-as-matter.
