Framing is a (somewhat hybrid human) freestanding object that displays the artist's explorations around the notion of "Strong Back, Soft Front" (quote by Joan Halifax). It consists of two stretcher frames, mounted back-to-back, strapped together by a safety belt. One is holding frosted glass, like a covered window determined to not display its inner world, the other one is trying to open up, as a triptych.
It is communicating with us through a widely known visual language that refers to art handling, in other words: "delicate matters" that are in motion. When we disarm our shields, dare we risk to have an open, soft front?
The title also refers to the notion used in social sciences, where framing comprises a set of concepts and theoretical perspectives on how individuals, groups, and societies organize, perceive, and communicate about reality. It can manifest in thought or interpersonal communication.
