A lightbox sign, installed outside the main exhibition space. A gesture of carrying a personal visual experience into a public medium.

The number 22, which I have recorded many times over the course of my life, becomes not a story about me but a universal symbol of repetition and of looking closely. Placed in a context where things are usually sold, where people are persuaded and called in, this sign offers nothing. It is a reminder. Of attention, of patterns, of the optics of perception.

It does not demand to be seen. It watches, itself, becoming a quiet but insistent sign in the space.
