Soft Bodies, Hard World explores queerness through intimacy, vulnerability, identity, and the ways queer bodies occupy emotional and physical space. Inspired by ephemerality and fleeting moments, the project reflects on temporary connections, softness, memory, and the fragile traces people leave behind.
Soft Bodies, Hard World reflects on queer intimacy, vulnerability, and the fleeting nature of connection.
The work continues through gesture, memory, and the quiet traces left within spaces and bodies. Remaining intentionally unfinished and emotionally led, the pieces move like memory itself — fragmented, intimate, fleeting, and constantly shifting between presence and disappearance.
