I’m Alive (2026) is constructed from medical objects collected throughout the artist’s treatment, including syringes, pills, packaging, and injection vials, arranged into a mandala on pink velvet. Materials typically associated with pain, fear, and clinical routine are repositioned into a precise, meditative composition.


The pink velvet introduces a contrasting layer of meaning. Soft, tactile, and traditionally associated with the body, it holds the objects within a surface that suggests care rather than sterility.



The process of making becomes central to the work. Through repetition, placement, and attention, the objects begin to change in how they are experienced. What once carried a strong emotional charge is gradually neutralised. The materials lose their fixed associations and are encountered again as form, texture, and structure. 


Rather than illustrating pain, the work demonstrates a shift in perception. A composition that holds both the trace of what happened and the fact of continued existence.
