The Other Side of Reality is a “small monument” to the placebo effect and its poetic contradiction and depth. The piece is an exploration of duality — the seen and the unseen, the tangible and the imagined. I see it as a portal between the physical world and the internal, often surreal, landscapes of the mind.

The title suggests an invitation to question what is real. Is reality what we can touch and measure, or is it equally constructed from dreams, memories, and subconscious impressions?


Ultimately, The Other Side of Reality is a contemplative object — a reminder that there is always more beneath the surface. It asks us to embrace ambiguity and to recognize that what we perceive is only one version of truth.
