The Untitled Experiment — A Collaboration Between Artist and Beholder

The Untitled Experiment — awaiting a name.

“An artist never really sees his work.” — Ralph Kerle

This work marks a turning point in my creative process. For the first time, I’ve altered the background of an image—not to manipulate its reality, but to explore the delicate boundary between observation and imagination.

The Untitled Experiment stands apart from my collections. It exists as a question rather than a statement—a meditation on how perception shapes what we believe we see.

By leaving this image without a title, I’m asking you, the viewer, to become part of the creative process. The act of naming carries power. It anchors emotion, fixes meaning, and transforms an image from perception into memory.

What does this work suggest to you? A feeling, a place, a fragment of a dream? I invite you to look beyond its surface and offer a title that resonates with your personal interpretation.

I will select the title that most closely mirrors my own perception of the work. The person whose suggestion is chosen will receive a signed 50 × 50 cm edition of The Untitled Experiment as a gesture of appreciation.

Your reflections will become part of this dialogue between artist and beholder—a reminder that every artwork exists twice: once in creation, and once in perception.
