BLACK SILENCE explores the density of black in all its dimensions. Each tile—glossy, matte, satin, or textured black—creates a vibrational field that absorbs light while reflecting it back in fragmented ways. This plurality of blacks creates an almost hypnotic depth, like an endless night. At irregular intervals, golden tiles capture the slightest ray and sparkle like fireflies in the darkness.

The central square acts as a vortex of calm, a visual anchoring zone where silence and energy converge. Through its rigorous structure and discreet light contrast, it evokes the still heart around which everything breathes. The entire frame thus functions as a meditative, almost ritualistic surface, where the eye can lose itself in order to better refocus.

Designed for yoga, healing, or inner retreat spaces, BLACK SILENCE deploys a sober yet powerful aesthetic. It is a work of slowing down, centering, and calming—a wall of sacred silence that invites contemplation, listening, and presence.
