I made Pink Room late one night. Working tiny brought home the gap between measurement and perception. Each small mark carried unexpected presence, and a sense of spaciousness emerged. Interior and exterior blurred, and centimetres mattered less than the mind’s eye, where colour and space expanded freely.
