in single cells

EXHIBITION DATA:
August 20 to September 18, 2020
 


the work is collected from
those who were stranded, isolated, had difficulty moving, are frustrated, angry, analyzing,
recovering from an illness, weaving into metaphors ideas, emotions

plotting (a) movement to cope with a difficulty,
some sadness, a distrust the work is a symbol
an effort to reflect and react to - a function, a feeling, a fact
as from a single cell where a prisoner eats,
sleeps, cleans himself -
where he thinks and wishes the thinking to stop

the work is created to continue living,
or to continue working,
to protest in order to address
a lack of compassion and failure to take care of
those who may or may not be aware, or have already perished
