In this assemblage, a slender abstracted figure is bound at the wrists and ankles with tight loops of wire, its elongated limbs held upright in a posture that reads as both surrender and suspension. The figure’s restraint becomes the visual hinge for the work’s reflection on coercive “conversion therapy.”

As the Supreme Court considers whether a therapist’s free-speech claim can overturn laws protecting minors, the work stages a meditation on control framed as care. It asks what happens when institutions, legal, medical, and religious, attempt to determine which identities are permissible, and it renders visible the cost borne by the body when autonomy is treated as something to be corrected.
