This work explores memory and intimacy as forces that inscribe themselves onto the body. Countless relationships have left indelible marks on me - traces that linger beneath the surface of the skin. I try to wash them away, yet within the water I only continue to sink, as if pulled down by an invisible weight, caught between release and suffocation.

Here, water becomes a metaphor for intimacy itself: it cleanses and renews, yet at the same time it drowns and erases. Its touch is both gentle and violent, promising relief while threatening disappearance.

The work situates the body in a state of ambivalence, suspended between healing and harm. It asks how we carry others within us, and whether immersion in memory is an act of healing or of loss.
