00DOminus, alpha
the origin of invisible motion
00DOminus, alpha is the first work in the series In the Beginning was the Sound. It explores the moment before time, before light, and before sound—when invisible motion began. Inspired by the Genesis account, this piece visualizes the silent presence of the Spirit hovering between nothing and everything. 00DOminus marks the conceptual origin of the series, where formless energy and sacred geometry meet to express the beginning of all things.
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. < Genesis 1:1–2 >
The Silent Geometry of the Beginning
These two drawings mark the conceptual foundation of the series “00DOminus.” One captures the still wave—motion without expansion; the other reveals the heptagon as a symbol of divine structure.
The Threshold Between Chaos and Creation
This large canvas was presented during the artist’s Master of Fine Arts graduation exhibition in 2015. It translates the earlier drawings into a monumental scale, embodying the transition from formlessness to sacred order.
Beneath the surface lies a chaotic layer—traces of scattered, irregular colors suggesting a state before structure. Over this undercurrent of disorder, a subtle veil of black emerges, upon which the heptagon and concentric wave lines are drawn.
The result is a visual tension between visible geometry and invisible depth, inviting the viewer into a space where creation is still suspended—yet already unfolding.

Before there was light, there was a still wave—motion without expansion. And then, on the first day: “Let there be light.” The silence begins to resonate.

Artist Notes
Before there was light, there was a gentle resonance— a standing wave, unmoving, a still vibration that had not yet expanded. There was no form, and even time had not begun.
Scripture says: “The Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.” That, too, must have been a kind of movement.
I wanted to hold that moment— the silence that came before the first sound, before “Let there be light.” In that chaos, where light and darkness had not yet divided, where there was no above or below, I began to draw a heptagon and imagined waves radiating from its center.
Beneath the black paint, traces of scattered color remained—fragments of a moment too primal for words. The black overlay became both darkness and shield. And with each line, each point that emerged, I felt something begin to stir.
This is not a story of creation itself, but of what came before—a moment when nothing had yet happened, and yet everything already existed
as possibility.
A silent resonance.
An invisible motion.
And a beginning not yet named.
