About the artwork
Deprivation
Personal and somewhat frightening, I think I walk among these bodies, here and there, grown into this world. They can be huge, they can be small, sometimes they look at me, and sometimes they sleep with their eyes closed.
I like how the noise of this world frames their tranquility.
