Description
"Cruiser" by Jeremiah Meyer captures a moment of quiet anticipation, where the viewer becomes both the observer and the protagonist. Through a fragmented perspective, the piece evokes a sense of stillness, where the boundary between waiting and moving, presence and absence, becomes fluid. The tension between comfort and confinement, freedom and restraint, plays out in the space between the viewer and the unknown, leaving room for personal interpretation and emotional connection. The artwork invites reflection on the quiet moments that shape our journeys, both physical and emotional.
