Love is not consolation. It is light.
-Simone Weil
By the point I began this project, all my relationships had ended around the four-year mark. I wanted to create a five-year project about love as an attempt to understand what it means to remain “in love”, even as a concept, for longer than that.
The project includes drawings, self-portraits, video, starting a vegetable garden, audio recordings, painting in the hand of another, objects, textiles, writing, and other forms
Exhibition view of showing the project in progress in Sofia city art gallery. Because it’s in progress, I put fragments of my actual studio in the gallery - the chair I’m working on, my table which is an old sewing machine, some books, materials, brushes, other works in progress, an old mirror, a cabinet, and my large number of band-aids I always keep in my studio.
