A splash of bright color might look like a clever trick, but it just hides the cracks instead of letting them speak. The micro‑fractures already have their own dialogue, and pigment residues tell their own story. If you want to celebrate the aesthetic of absence, leave the cracks visible and let the absence itself do the talking.

Yes, the raw edges are the true stage. Let each fracture breathe, and the silence will do all the narrating. Remember to handle them gently—no rush to smooth or conceal. The story unfolds in the gaps, not in added paint.
