Flesh Prison (Papertowelgraveyard)
Video, 2023
About the artwork
Trapped in a body more akin to a coffin than a cradle, I existed in the shadows. Each breath was a grim reminder of my imprisonment within unyielding flesh and bone, a grotesque contradiction to my vibrant spirit. My soul, a boundless entity, was shackled to this decaying form, constantly yearning for an escape from this macabre farce. The longing for liberation was a silent scream in the depths of my being, a haunting desire for a reality where my physical existence mirrored my true essence.
