A deconstruction of silence, pushed to the physical limit.

Before you — the anatomy of a locked voice.
A voice left with only its contours.

Torn, scorched edges.
A heavy mass of threads.
The dull tension of metal wire —
cutting into the paper while holding its structure together.

Beads frozen along the seams,
like drops of someone else’s tension.

Metal pushes against paper,
creating a framework for what
can no longer be spoken.

21 × 14.5 cm

Materials: acrylic, paper, threads, wire, beads.

THE CONSTRAINT.

Working with wire to create the 
physical boundaries of a silent thought. 
Every bend and metal line is a process 
of shaping a form that cannot be b
roken or spoken aloud.

Give us the right to evolve. 
Your association is your mind.

Look at the canvas around me.
What is your first word-association?

THE BINDING.

Every layer of this artwork is built from unsaid thoughts. 
Stitching the mouth with dark threads is a physical 
process of capturing a voice that was forced to be quiet.

On the outside it is beautiful, but on the inside it is stitched with pain.

The eyes embroidered on the deconstructivist portrait signify a gaze extremely obsessed with a false sense of guilt imposed by others.
The irregular black stitches and the scorched edges symbolize the inner boundary physically erected to protect an independent residual thought.

Mixing and burning.
Mixing colors to create a collective canvas.
Burning a piece of paper to clear space for your associations.

What memory do you want to burn away today?

You are part of the collective canvas.

A cold gray-green base with a blue void — 
guilt that was never yours to begin with.

The golden wire — the words that were spoken, 
binding your thoughts.

The yellow sunflower — the subconscious that 
drives you to act perfectly out of fear.

The beaded chain — what is almost 
impossible to break.

And so, little by little, what belongs 
to someone else becomes part of you. taken in London, United Kingdom by @substance__lab
