From the “Anime fragmenta” series.

Can You Hear Me? is a work that moves like a held breath, a vision suspended between
surrender and recall, between silence and possibility. It arises from the sensations left by all
those life experiences that pass through us without asking permission, uncontrollable,
inevitable events that shatter our equilibrium and force us to confront our limits.

The figure is fragmented, divided, as if the body is no longer able to contain the weight of
what it has experienced. Immersed in the water, shrouded in darkness, it floats in a deep,
silent space. The water becomes both refuge and prison: a place of suspension, where
movement slows, and every effort seems futile. After attempting the impossible, the figure
abandons itself, helpless, letting go not out of defeat, but out of exhaustion. Its desire is
simple and human: to rest, to stop struggling, to remain still.

Yet, from above, something breaks the darkness. A luminous presence pierces the darkness
like a voice that refuses to surrender to silence. It is a warm, enveloping light, that doesn’t
impose but calls, that doesn’t save but invites. It is the hope that persists, the courage that
emerges when all seems lost. It isn’t a certain promise, but a possibility, fragile and
powerful at the same time: that of rising again, of listening, of trying once more.

Can you hear me? is a suspended question, addressed both to the figure and the viewer. It
is the internal dialogue between the part that wants to let go and the part that, despite
everything, continues to believe in rebirth. A work that speaks of fragility, of abandonment,
but also of that subtle light that, even in the darkest moments, still tries to make itself heard.
