Description
“[...] for every question there is an echo, a resonance, that almost resembles, sometimes, an answer.”
— Chandra Livia Candiani, Dreams of the River
Two bodies seek definition.
They overlap and listen to one another through a process of mutual support, inhabiting the space that exists and the time that is needed: the time of inner gaze and repeated attempts.
The forget-me-not grows at the edge of the woods, in damp clearings and uncultivated land.
Given the right conditions, it strengthens and expands; its flowers rise toward the light and, without ostentation, offer their singular beauty.
This image invites us to preserve the memory of past experiences while approaching new ones with lightness and awareness.
The work stages memory, fragility, emptiness, and new beginnings.
An opportunity for self-observation: to leave behind what is no longer needed while preserving what must remain.
To re-found oeself through connection with the other, within the environment one inhabits.
