From the series Luminous Symmetries, this small-scale luminous work presents a single gender fluid profile portrait on the works “day” side and on its “night” side. The two sides reflect symbolic ideas of day and night, being awake and being asleep, being aware or being ignorant. These dialectical positions are also echoed in the title, with the idea of circulatory systems, which can be in the human body, in the world of ideas, in the complex context of human interactions, love and hate, empathy and indifference.
