One of us forever unknown or known 2026

One of us forever unknown or known 2026 – 40 x 50cm, acrylic, oil on canvas

The title from Bexkett reveals the condition of identity that cannot be settled into either anonymity or recognition, forever oscillating between the known and the unknown, the singular and the collective. One of us. Forever. The flower that is itself, specific, distinct, and simultaneously dissolves into the abundance that makes individual identification beside the point.

The erasures are part of the surface. The revisions show. The garden does not present itself as finished or resolved, it presents itself as in the process of becoming, which is the only honest condition available to something growing in ground that has not guaranteed its survival.

One of us. The flower that is known and unknown simultaneously, individual and collective, specific and dissolving. Forever.
