"Confident Potential" invites viewers into a vibrant, flat tableau where joy takes flight under an unyielding sun. A figure is suspended in pure elation, buoyed by a reassuring presence and a towering confection, while a smiling creature lurks in the deep. But this polished paradise is a veneer; it conceals a deeper narrative of subtle influence as reality is slowly breaking all around them. The question lingers: will they realize this before the self-delusion devours them? What lifts one to such heights may also tether them to an unexpected fate, viewed from a curiously flat vantage point where the cost of elevation is hidden in plain sight.
