'Garden Wall Mother' considers maternal care as a form of living architecture, and the mother as a protective boundary. The work holds the feeling of a mother saying to her child: you will be my flowers, and I will be your garden wall. I will hold you, shelter you, and bear the weather, while leaving you room to grow.. The work is built through repeated acts of wrapping, binding, and accumulation, transforming soft material into a structure of shelter and support. I am interested in the tension between protection and freedom: how care can hold without enclosing, shield without limiting, and create the conditions for another body to root, rise, and flower.
