This work is an installation that explores the connection between my inner world and the external world. Drawing from Western mysticism, angel numbers-such as 11:11 or 2:22-appear as recurring sequences in daily life. These numbers, often seen as messages from higher realms like gods, spirits, ancestors, or departed loved ones. For me, they represent a form of communication with my guardians. Five years ago, after making a verbal prayer, I began noticing these numbers more frequently, and each encounter became a moment of blessing and connection. While we all exist within the same dimension of time, by transforming these moments into art, they transcend individual memories and become part of a collective diary. It resonates with countless moments and exploring the interplay between personal experiences and collective consciousness.

Through this work, I aim to explore how personal symbols can intersect with collective experiences, and how seemingly mundane objects-like numbers-can hold profound significance.
