Each small, repeated gesture carries the possibility of becoming something else. The hand and our thoughts move together, bound by patience and attention. This serene collaboration manifests a harmonious state of being, which dispels the chaos around us.

This monologue, a chair and a piece of metal, becomes a listener. A medium through which thoughts pass, where the voice leans on matter and sees itself reflected. When we learn how to sit in silence we meet the truest version of ourselves. Through slowness, I draw nearer. Inspired by the gestures of textile craftsmanship, I linger within the act of making, where time settles the duration of my consciousness — I speak with my language that became visual.
