Ostium Noctis

© Mac Kristin

“Ostium Noctis” — Latin for “Window to the Night” — is a quiet descent into depth, stillness, and introspection.
A sequence of soft blue gradients draws the eye inward, each layer pulling us closer to a central dark square: a portal, a void, a place of still presence. The brush marks in the core disrupt the silence just enough — like distant stars flickering across a midnight sky, or faint memories rising from below.

The piece invites a slow gaze, a moment of inward breath. What lies at the center is not necessarily darkness, but unanswered space. In its geometry, the painting holds rhythm; in its color, a feeling of cold calm — like air just before sleep or thought just before form.

Ostium Noctis opens not onto something, but into something.
Not to look out — but to look within.
