Disappearance is treated not as an ending, but as a structural condition.
This work examines what remains when space, body, and form no longer hold.
Set in a small room within a Buddhist temple, the narrative follows a speaker who, after her mother’s death, begins to reconsider existence through points, lines, color, and frame. Death is not approached as an event, but as a condition that alters perception and spatial relation. The text minimizes psychological exposition and character development, focusing instead on the gradual destabilization of the body as a reliable subject. A figure that appears repeatedly at night is not presented as a ghost or a memory, but as a sign of formal disintegration. As mass dissolves into line, and line into point, the narrative relinquishes volume and coherence. Rather than offering resolution or emotional catharsis, the work investigates what remains when spatial occupation collapses. By foregrounding structure over sentiment, the text proposes a mode of contemporary experimental fiction in which disappearance functions not as conclusion, but as a method of inquiry.
