Measured Without Proof is a work that dwells in the in-between—between what we know and what we only sense, between matter and meaning. Sarah Trigg’s sculpture does not attempt to define or explain; instead, it offers a form that holds space for uncertainty. Solid in presence yet elusive in interpretation, it invites the viewer into a quiet tension—where the tangible hints at the immaterial, and the unsaid carries weight. We are drawn to how the work resists finality. It doesn’t seek to resolve, but to remain open— asking us to consider that some truths are not proven, but felt. A contemplative piece that renders the invisible quietly visible.
