  4. Braiding
    Installation artwork with a large screen showing a monochrome portrait of a bald person. Cream-coloured threads fan out behind the screen as if from the back of the person’s head. They gather into a long braid that becomes thinner and thinner, eventually connecting to a  grey box with a small screen embedded.
