On Discovery

Discovery is never neutral. What appears first begins to determine what can be seen at all.
Over time, attention follows these conditions, shaping not just what is found, but what is able to hold.

On Classification

Categories make work legible, but they also narrow it. They describe what something looks like, while structure begins where those limits become visible. What appears similar may not operate in the same way.

When narrative loosens its grip, other conditions come forward: relation, repetition, pressure, and hold.
What matters is no longer what the work says, but how it sustains itself over time.
