This impulse, to read beyond the visible, is shaped by culture, memory, upbringing, and personal history.
The lamp emerges from this reflection. It casts light onto a collection of voices exploring spirituality, superstition, and belief.
Beliefs form the ground on which our identities rest: they shape our values, guide our choices, and colour how we understand the world.
By illuminating these intertwined thoughts, the lamp invites a deeper awareness of how identity and perception are formed. It encourages self-reflection while reminding us that belief—though personal—is also universally human, woven from the collective as much as the individual.
