Statement:

 Everything seems to call for speech, but something holds it back.
 Between gentleness and constraint, signs respond to each other without ever resolving themselves.
 The work leaves the visitor responsible for interpreting what is said, negotiated or left unsaid, where the notion of consent remains deliberately ambiguous.

 Construction:

 Mixed media on canvas with three-dimensional assembly: acrylic with brush, textual intervention with aerosol, lips sculpted in expanded polystyrene, felt rose on metal stem with metal fragments, integrated ticket.
