"Holding Sway Over Time – (Certified Illusion)" — from the series "The Walls Speak to Me of You"

A crumbling wall within a room of a house; preserved upon it are fragments of wallpaper and an old electrical outlet panel with a cable still plugged in. Beneath each socket, in designated spaces meant to indicate the “locality” linked to the cable’s connection, one can read:

“The dampness of the lake” / “My darling’s gaze”, “Laughter of old friends” / “Awaited tomorrows” / “Dreamed eternity”.

This piece offers a poetic reflection on the world and time. With quiet humor, it highlights our omnipotent desire to grasp time, preserve memory, foresee the future, and remain connected—at will—to what we have lived and what we long to live, ever driven by a latent fear of losing what we hold, who we are, and the vast unknown ahead. The work subtly reimagines our contemporary impulse to record and retain everything through increasingly sophisticated technological means.
