Installation, 2015

Two paper shirts joined at the sleeves, suspended in a fragile equilibrium, in a vulnerable delicacy. With the subtlety of the material I intended to outline the presence of two bodies in dialogue, and the potential vulnerability of the body in front of the other. How many times can paper be folded without tearing? Every crease, every wrinkle, every fissure remains on its surface, as a testament to its history.
