"The work shows a person pumping milk while wearing a pink mask with exaggerated anthropomorphic features. Born of a spontaneous gesture in a safe, convivial space, the scene captures a shared moment of freedom among women. Evoking carnival, the mask becomes a tool for questioning power and transgressing norms, allowing one to be seen while remaining concealed. Placed on the floor, the circle of light acts as a visual well, a projection space into which the gaze can descend. The diffused light turns the scene into an image that is both sacred and ironic, oscillating between domestic ritual and mythic figure. The object playfully recalls stained glass and religious painting, but subverts the sacred image of the mother, replacing the male gaze with a feminine look grounded in complicity". Azad Asifovich, Melanie Weill, translation Siena Muller
