Light catches on polyethylene—thin, industrial, inert—yet it clings like a second skin. In this series, the banal material becomes an instrument of tension: sculptural, suffocating, and intimate. As the figure turns in fragments, identity dissolves under pressure—obscured by synthetic clarity. The final intrusion of a human hand blurs the line between assistance and dominance. Formally minimal yet psychologically dense, Polyethylene interrogates containment, visibility, and the material fragility of control.
