ENGLISH VERSION
Behind the Eyelids is an invitation to enter the quiet world within. The eyes, framed by silver paint on a darkened face, suggest a gaze turned toward memory, sensation, and truths that require no words.
The work speaks of another kind of vision—where closing the eyes allows us to see more clearly. What happens behind the eyelids is not emptiness, but presence. A presence we can only feel in stillness—where thoughts settle, and scent rises like a whisper of the self.
Resting on a clear perfume bottle, the sculpture becomes a vessel for what cannot be named, yet remains—through each breath, each fleeting memory that quietly returns.
BẢN TIẾNG VIỆT
Behind the Eyelids / Sau hàng mi khép lại là lời mời bước vào thế giới thầm lặng bên trong. Đôi mắt nđược viền bởi lớp sơn bạc trên nền mặt tối, gợi lên một cái nhìn hướng về ký ức, cảm giác, và những sự thật không cần lời.
Tác phẩm nói về một loại thị giác khác – nơi nhắm mắt lại là để thấy rõ hơn. Những gì xảy ra sau hàng mi không phải là khoảng trống, mà là sự hiện diện. Một hiện diện mà ta chỉ cảm được trong tĩnh lặng – nơi ý nghĩ lắng xuống, và mùi hương trỗi lên như lời thì thầm về chính mình.
Tựa trên chai nước hoa trong suốt, tác phẩm trở thành một nơi lưu giữ những điều không thể gọi tên, nhưng vẫn còn đó qua từng nhịp thở, từng lần ta khẽ nhớ.

Where Unspoken Stories Are Told Through Scent
1. Introduction
Not every story needs words.
Not every feeling finds its way out through speech.
Some things we've held onto for a long time –
softly, silently, without anyone knowing.
But they’ve always been there.
Story Project was born from a simple, genuine need:
to be told – but not loudly.
Here, we don’t use words to tell stories.
We use scent, visuals, sound, and space…
to listen to what has never been named.
2. Purpose
Story Project is a creative branch dedicated to personal, emotional, and artistic explorations.
Here, we:
– Use scent as a form of storytelling.
– Carry out independent art projects where emotion is the core.
– Connect people through honest, unfiltered moments – no judgment, no embellishment.
3. What Makes It Different
There is no right or wrong.
No perfect characters.
Every project in Story Project begins from something deeply personal:
A sliver of emotion.
An untold fragment.
A story with no ending.
We don’t try to tell stories for others.
We simply create a space where you can tell yours – in your own way.
