About

Where the Body Rests is an ongoing body of work that considers the body as both archive and site—holding memory, grief, touch, and time.

The project unfolds through the collection of personal materials: garments, objects, and hair. Each item arrives with a history—worn, held, or carried—and enters a process of release.

Through acts of cutting, burning, and reworking, these materials are transformed. What remains is not preservation, but translation. Residue becomes structure. Ash becomes pigment. Fragments are woven into new forms.

The work resists fixed authorship. It is built through participation, where individual histories are folded into a shared language of material and gesture.
