My Son, 2005 |  Single-channel video, 4:54 min, with sound





A boy lies motionless on a table, dressed only in white underwear, his eyes closed as if suspended between sleep and vulnerability. The camera lingers across his body while a woman’s plaintive chant rises in the background—tender yet unsettling. The work hovers between devotion and possession, evoking the fragile boundaries of intimacy, care, and control.
