“Into the Night Forest, 2021” is part of the Into the Night Forest exhibition. The installation explores the liminal space after the event of trauma, specifically focusing on the lasting effects of rape and the trauma survivors carry with them. The piece uses materials like wax, gauze, sawdust, bedsheet, and wire to evoke the tension between the fragility of the human body and the resilience of the spirit. The piece reflects the emotional journey of moving through trauma and finding healing, while also confronting the absence of the 'old self' after the traumatic event. The installation invites the viewer to experience the visceral impact of this loss, and the deep emotional scars left behind.
