INTERFERENCE N°4 — CARRIED ROOTS is the fourth work in the series and marks a decisive transition: from the individual to the collective, from the single body to cultural identity, from birth as interruption to culture as burden — and as resistance.
A mother carries her child on her back. The gesture is ancient, universal, primordial: it is the transmission of life, of memory, of roots. Behind them, a black and white geometric arrow — cold, artificial, directive — points forcefully to the left, like a command, like a pressure, like an imposed course. In the background, a golden circle evokes a sun, a mandala, a cosmic origin: culture is there, visible, yet already partially overwritten by the geometry of interference.
The diagonal band — the serial element that runs throughout the entire series — does not cut through a single body here, but insinuates itself into the entire compositional space, dividing the warmth of tradition from the cold of an imposed direction.
INTERFERENCE N°4 — CARRIED ROOTS speaks of cultural identity as an act of resistance: carrying one's child, one's language, one's memory in a world that always points in another direction. Together with the preceding works, it completes a journey that moves from individual birth to the erosion of time, through to the collective challenge of preserving what one is — in a common space that belongs to everyone and to no one.
