ephemeral body
the series aims to express the shortness and the restrictiveness of life, with the figures wearing ‘counters’ around their necks, which display their remaining numbers of breaths; all depicted behind the ‘narrow’ frames they confine their lives within. the vulnerability of the body is reflected in the nudity of these figures.
