“That back… was me.”

Caspar David Friedrich’s Wanderer above the Sea of Fog is more than a painting—it’s an invitation to stand in someone else’s silence.

In this video, we explore the philosophy of the Rückenfigur, the sublime in Romanticism, and the eternal question of where we stand in the universe.
