Open the file, select and reload the body images that are about to be submerged in history. By applying two gestures (or attitudes)—revealing and concealing, with a touch of artifice—I extend the 'event' as far as possible towards both ends, and then embed the act of retelling itself into the present reality.

​

Through a revisitation of my nude drawings from 3 years ago, the purpose of this body of work is to foster reimagination of the correlation between the fluctuating socio-political context and the production of works, by employing diverse methods to represent the image of the human body.
