Clothing not as ornament, but as an architecture of concealment. The layering of identity through a rigid, monumental green corset that acts as a social shield and protective armor.
Where logic demands a face, the anatomy breaks. In its place rises a fluid, inverted mass: a suspended sea evoking the weight of memories and submerged emotions. The depths surface, replacing reason.
Yet, this erasure is not absolute. Below, a single eye cuts through the staging. It is proof that the authentic self endures, vigilant, beneath the layers of our social costumes.
The Process:
Staged Scanography: a ritual of assembly and dissolution. Hand-painted fragments and hand-colored magazine cutouts are combined into an ephemeral physical assemblage. Once scanned and digitally processed, the work is dismantled, preserving the individual elements to find new life in future compositions.
