The Uncharted

An exploration of the invisible boundaries between confinement and freedom, where the body struggles to escape the familiar yet remains suspended in the uncertainty of becoming.

I began this work with a question: what happens when the place that once made us feel safe becomes the very thing that holds us back?

I was interested in the tension between dependence and resistance, between the desire to be held and the instinct to break free. Through weight, imbalance, physical contact and moments of stillness, I explored how the body carries these contradictions.

The mattress became a space somewhere between comfort and confinement, while the other bodies seemed to exist as both support and invisible pressure. I wanted to leave these relationships unresolved, allowing the movement to exist between reality and something more psychological.
