This installation employs gauze and discarded sericulture tools to create a still, memory-laden space. Layers of white cloth wrap and suspend, intertwining with tools and silk threads like skin, condensing into a “second skin”; at times cocoon-like, they enclose traces of labor and memory.
The gauze, drawn and held by fine threads to the abandoned tools, evokes the invisible history of women’s labor. These fragile yet resilient mesh-like connections recall the repetitive gestures of sewing, mending, and caring—actions often overlooked, yet essential to sustaining both life and skill.
As natural light filters through the installation, shifting shadows emerge, quietly revealing the stratification of time, body, and identity. Here, women’s labor—intimate, enduring, and inscribed in the body—interweaves with memory and space, becoming an inseparable presence.
