Rift

In “Rift,” the face is divided between the outer form and an inner, wounded surface. The cracks, the darkened side, and the red thread passing through the mouth create an image of silence, pressure, and unhealed memory.

The work speaks of the marks that experiences leave on a person, even when they remain hidden. The rift is presented not only as a wound, but also as the revelation of an inner world asking to be heard.
