Through the presence of a small animal, this work repositions the center of perception away from the human as a fixed point of reference.
Situated across both urban and natural environments, the subject is not presented as a symbol or narrative device, but as an autonomous presence that engages space through shifts in scale, distance, and orientation.

By recalibrating the relationship between body and environment, the images articulate a perceptual field in which no single center dominates.
Within this field, scale no longer determines hierarchy, and spatial perception unfolds beyond human-centered frameworks.

Rather than establishing an opposition between human and non-human, the work operates through displacement, allowing multiple positions of perception to coexist within a shared spatial condition.
