Moulds and casts, 2025
Installation, plaster, silicone, wood, and wax

The work explores the mould as a metaphor for the human body, not only as a physical form, but as a vessel for memory, transformation, and resistance. The mould is both imprint and absence, a record of how we are shaped by biology, history, culture, and lived experience. The mould becomes an incubator, a space of containment, warmth, and potential. The word evokes a machine for nurturing fragile life, but also a generative site for new ideas, forms, and identities. In this work, it marks the meeting point of internal and external forces, where identity is both held and reshaped. It is a space between nourishment and control, personal vulnerability and collective memory, a quiet engine of becoming.
