Zero past, infinite future, 2016
Technique: handmade paper, gauze, ceramic, strings
Dimensions: 165 x 115 cm
Forms. Organic forms. Female forms.
Light and sensitive. Delicate. Fragile. Made of paper. And gauze.
Just hanging. White and smooth. As dried. Forgotten, but also so alive.
My work revolves around soft material.
The white color, the handmade paper, the way that they are hanging on the wall, gives out the feeling that it is something organic.
I like the idea of sensibility.
I like that you must be very careful to them.
That your treatment has to be so respectful to them.
