Across a vast and desolate landscape, three mysterious figures stand beneath an enormous, pale apparition suspended in the heavens. Two of the figures appear to be unraveling into the wind itself, their bodies dissolving into long, tangled strands swept across the barren earth. The third, its eyes obscured, stands silently among them. Above, a colossal, weathered form hangs in the sky, resembling some ancient celestial creature whose open mouth might be the very source of the restless air. Is this a moment of creation, a divine visitation, or the awakening of some forgotten elemental power?

Origin of the Wind explores the ancient human impulse to give form and intention to the invisible forces of nature. Before the world could be explained through science, the wind belonged to gods, spirits, and unseen beings whose breath could bring both life and destruction. Here, the boundaries between humanity, nature, and the supernatural dissolve into a strange communion. The figures seem neither entirely separate from the wind nor entirely consumed by it, suggesting a world in which the elements themselves possess a mysterious consciousness.

Reverse: A fragmented, ghostly figure drifts across a desolate landscape, its disjointed limbs suspended by a web of wires and pins. Like a forgotten anatomical diagram or an ancient relic of some unknowable ritual, it suggests a being caught between disintegration and resurrection.
