About Through the Cracks Collection

This collection delves into the interplay of color, texture, and imperfection, exploring how fractures and cracks reveal hidden depths beneath seemingly simple surfaces. Each piece juxtaposes bold, luminous fields of color with the raw, weathered texture of cracking paint, creating a tension between boldness and fragility, clarity and decay.

The cracks are not flaws—they are portals to what lies beneath, glimpses into the passage of time and the persistence of beauty in imperfection. Like ancient relics or weathered landscapes, each painting carries the weight of its process, inviting viewers to reflect on the contrasts between strength and vulnerability, permanence and change.

Through its abstract simplicity, this collection speaks to universal themes: the layered nature of existence, the breaking of boundaries, and the profound beauty found in what is left exposed. Each painting, framed in KOEAIH’s signature gold-edge on archival, museum-quality cradled wood painting panels, captures a timeless elegance that transforms spaces and stirs contemplation.
