"This Carrara marble sculpture, displayed on a wooden plinth, is inspired by a next-generation breast pump by the brand Elvie, designed by women. Made to fit discreetly inside a bra, it can be used hands-free and without exposing the breast. Here, the artist transforms a piece of everyday technology into a sculptural object. By attempting the most faithful possible reproduction of an industrial device with mineral material, the work plays on the boundary between the natural and artificial. The sculpture becomes a physical witness to a gesture of care, an invisible labor, a memory in the making. Enlarged to the scale of a human head, its smooth, abstract form recalls Cycladic idols, archaic figures of fertility. Ultimately, it slips away from its practical function to become a presence in itself, a being of its own, a cyborg entering into a tête-à-tête with the viewer.".
