Coalescence is a video performance in which a field of still water is gradually transformed through the introduction of black ink. Initially appearing as a solid, concrete surface, the field is disrupted by a single drop, revealing its liquidity as the water shifts and the ink begins to spread. As the action continues, the surface darkens, moving from a clear plane into a dense, black field. Bubbles emerge, forming transient clusters that expand, merge and dissolve over time. These formations accumulate and disperse in a continual process of coalescence, where distinct forms are repeatedly drawn together and undone. Over the duration of the work, the field moves toward a state of total saturation. What begins as a surface becomes depth; what appears fixed becomes fluid. In the final state, the surface resolves into a singular, continuous blackness, holding no distinction between figure and ground, surface and depth.
