Title safe area" is a post-production term in video editing, referring to a region located in the center of the screen that maintains a certain distance from the edges, ensuring the complete display of textual information and visual content; this work starts from the edges of this concept, using horses galloping outside the title safe area to contemplate the visibility of images and the inertia of viewing. Each black horse appears as if breaking free from the confinement of black pixels, racing out of the conventional display area and emerging in the narrow gaps on the left side; the work presents a path of escape from the predefined visual framework, inviting viewers to shift their gaze from the center to the boundaries, maintaining a sense of "beyond the frame" while still within the image itself.
