Through tangled textures and fraying edges, this work cultivates a deeply personal topography. The laborious process of using three limbs to operate the machine, and the presence of old clothing, dust and saliva highlight the intimate, bodily connection to the work. This process not only revives discarded materials but also acts as a personal, cathartic practice, intertwining thought with healing.
