in dehiscence - reliquary fragment I

The existence of this small and delicate body in dehiscence floats fragilely between being or simply disappearing. Covered with a hand-embroidered "skin" layer, in a reliquary shape, heavily scarred with simple stitches and visible basting, it expands, revealing its vibrant inner color, recalling, in this idea of bleeding, the evocation of the urgency of appealing for care and protection. The scars remind us that we are made of the same fabric, that we are part of the same body regardless of the biological and territorial cartography that can be embroidered on its skin. Even wounded, it expands into a complex duality of dimensions, exalting and reinforcing, in the strength of its evocation, a lineage that transcends it.
