Poles.

This work immerses the viewer in an atmosphere of solitude and detachment, embodied in pristine power supply poles that persist in their function yet stand as overlooked sentinels in the landscape. Once indispensable to human progress, they still channel unseen currents, still transmit energy, still interlace distant lives—but they do so in anonymity, their presence unremarked, their significance unspoken.

These poles remain erect, immutable, silent custodians of the civilization they sustain. They vibrate with electricity, yet their role is rendered inconspicuous, their existence subsumed into the background of daily life. Their rigid forms stretch skyward, yearning toward the infinite, yet they remain anchored to the earth—indispensable, yet disregarded; ever-functioning, yet unseen.

Timeless, impassive, indifferent to recognition, they occupy a liminal space between necessity and oblivion. They have no eyes, yet they bear witness to the ceaseless passage of time. They have no ears, yet they absorb the murmurs of the village that encircles them, unconscious of their silent vigil. They are neither abandoned nor cherished—present, yet estranged.

This work interrogates the paradox of visibility and erasure—how something can be vital yet imperceptible, functional yet forsaken in thought. These poles, once emblems of progress, now endure in quiet isolation, still working, still waiting, still there—integral, yet exiled in their own ubiquity.
