Presence Between Emergence and Afterimage II explores the unstable boundary between presence and absence. Emerging forms appear through layers of darkness and light, briefly taking shape before their contours begin to dissolve. What remains is not a fixed image, but a trace — an afterimage suspended between perception and disappearance. Part of RYU SATAKE's ongoing 2026 series exploring "kehai" — the subtle perception of a presence that cannot be fully seen or defined. Black is not a color. Black is a structure.
A signed limited edition, each individually numbered.
This edition is produced and sold in A4 size only.
High-quality giclée printing using 12-color pigment inks and 0.35mm fine art paper. Faithfully reproduces the texture and brushstrokes of the original work, with lightfastness of approximately 200 years.

About Limited Editions
This is a Limited Edition produced in only 5 pieces worldwide. Each piece carries a unique edition number, with authenticity proven both digitally and physically.

Each print carries a unique NFC tag. Its tamper-evident structure breaks if removed, so it cannot be transferred to another work.

Artwork details, edition number, and ownership history are recorded on the blockchain, preserving provenance and ownership over the long term.

A certificate bearing the artist's signature is included. Along with the print itself, it leaves you with proof of authentic ownership.
Unlike traditional proof that relies on a handwritten signature alone, linking a physical NFC tag with a digital certification record delivers tamper-proof, far more reliable proof of authenticity.
Authenticity is certified using "Startrail," a blockchain certification platform operated by Startbahn, Inc.
