Triptych

The Triptych (Lviv bus terminal, Przemyśl transfer station, Lviv vokzal) explores the sharp tension between presence and sudden absence. The work emerges from a relationship stretched across two continents, shaped by intense periods together that are invariably cut short by departure.

Here, the stations serve as a threshold between opposing realities: the quiet, intimate world shared by two people, and the sudden weight of solitude that settles the moment distance takes over.

The pieces consider “goodbye” not merely as an ending, but as a space of raw uncertainty and finality. Each departure closes one reality and initiates a solitary journey toward the next. All the while, separation lingers within each individual — a quiet condition that ultimately sustains the connection through memory and anticipation.
