A Subtle Distance

This work begins from a similar context as A Full with Empty. When a door opens, the gap it creates is shaped like a trapezoid, wider on the handle side and narrowing toward the hinges. As the door slowly closes, that trapezoid becomes a triangle and eventually a single line.

This piece not only addresses the gap created by a single open door but also the space that emerges between two planes or panels placed side by side. The door stopper used in the work functions as a physical limit. It determines how far a door can open, thereby controlling the size and angle of the gap. It acts as a device that regulates openness, closure, and the ambiguous states in between.
