Body installation view 1

In Body, the artist examines the relationship between the individual and the urban environment. The city — fences, houses, weathered walls — forms a daily backdrop that is often perceived as something external: an abstract shell made of "important" buildings, "beautiful" buildings, "familiar" buildings — something to be demolished, reconstructed, or redesigned.

The installation takes the form of a large wall-like plane marked by fractures and small openings. It requires a close, bodily mode of viewing: the visitor approaches, shifts position, and looks through narrow gaps. The wall stops functioning as architecture and begins to read as skin — a surface that records pressure, time, and contact, and at the same time separates and connects.

Body redirects attention from facades to what produces them: the lives that take place behind walls and continuously shape them. The work proposes not a panoramic view of the city, but an encounter with its surfaces at close range — where urban space is perceived as something lived, not merely observed.
