It is matter is perspective, and a poetic gesture that highlights the weight of identity, its significance and the complexities surrounding integration and belonging. It proposes an analysis of reality that revolves around the interplay of opposites and varying levels of sensitivity: the tangible physical realm and the realm of representation, which serves as a metaphorical reflection of ourselves.
