This project began as a study of orange, approached as a range rather than a single hue. Starting from a fragrance built on the tension between citrus brightness and mineral depth, the work translates its presence into image. Not to describe the scent, but to approach its balance between freshness and density, clarity and warmth.
The film observes how light moves through liquid and glass. Amber, copper and burnt orange shift with thickness, refraction and exposure. The bottle becomes a medium for gradients and internal reflections. Small variations in angle or intensity alter the reading. Edges dissolve, volumes soften, surfaces gain a tactile quality. Color is treated as material, not surface.
What emerges is a study of orange as substance. A color that holds weight, absorbs light and unfolds over time. The images isolate what gives this presence its density. Between transparency and opacity, glow and shadow, the work seeks a precise equilibrium that remains.
