There are artists who describe emotion, and there are artists who rebuild it.
At Ilgary Studio, poet and founder Caelvian Vale treats profound affection not as a passing state, but as a full internal reconfiguration — a moment where the emotional system quietly rewrites itself.
Among his works, one piece stands out as the clearest expression of this philosophy:
“Every time I see you,” a short poem that has become both a poetic manifesto and a wearable design within the Ilgary Studio universe.
The poem doesn’t just speak about love; it maps it — as a trigger, a movement, and finally, a rebirth.
The Poem: “Every Time I See You”
Every time I see you,
a bird lifts from my heart.
I swim with seals,
kiss the penguins,
sleep in the arms of the moon
and wake to the sun’s soft touch.
Every time I see you,
I am born again.
At the heart of the collection lies this luminous fragment — a miniature emotional architecture that compresses transformation into a single, repeatable moment.

1. The Code of Instantaneous Observation
Caelvian Vale’s work is rooted in decades of close, disciplined observation — of people, silence, and the micro-movements of emotion that occur before language forms.
This attentiveness allows him to compress a full inner process into a clean emotional instruction.
The Systemic Trigger
The opening line —
“Every time I see you, a bird lifts from my heart.”
— behaves as a precise emotional trigger:
-
An external event: seeing you
-
An instant internal ascent: a bird rising
Affection becomes a measurable movement — something that happens to the system, not just within the mind.
The Output of Rebirth
Swimming with seals, kissing penguins, sleeping in the moon’s arms — these images behave like the emotional output of a freshly awakened system.
They’re playful, pure, and unfiltered.
The world becomes more fluid; imagination loosens its boundaries.
This isn’t simply happiness.
It is reorientation — an internal shift mapped through imagery.
How Can a Simple Design Hold Such Complexity?
Ilgary Studio answers this through its aesthetic logic:
Simplicity is not emptiness; it is distilled truth.
Rather than crowding the garment with details, the design reduces everything to the core movement — the quiet, upward lift — letting the emotional architecture speak for itself.
2. The System Design of Transformation
The poem functions with the clarity of a blueprint.
Vale approaches affection with the mindset of an architect — emotion transformed into structure.
“Every time I see you” follows a specific emotional sequence:
-
Trigger: The beloved appears.
-
Internal Motion: The bird rises.
-
Expansion: The imagination opens into vivid images.
-
Conclusion:
“I am born again.”
This is emotion as a designed experience — repeatable, nameable, and structurally sound.
Within Ilgary Studio’s emotional universe, this poem anchors the Deep Love category of their Gift Finder system, serving as a transformation reference point for gifts meant to express renewal.
