Open Windows, 2025

Home is a place of private solace, where multiple lives unfold simultaneously yet are contained within their own rooms. Different lives can occur within a home, with nothing shared but walls. Windows are a glimpse into an intimacy that is otherwise protected by concrete and brick. Open Windows gives a glimpse of two rooms with opposing dialogue. Though they physically exist next to each other, a moment of something that could be perceived as both internal dialogue and external conversation is taking place. Rooms act as a representation for the way thoughts and emotions are compartmentalized, and how this struggle leads to a feeling of being trapped within walls. A window serves as a boundary between the private and the public, and offers an outside view into this struggle, inviting the viewer to consider how internal narratives are processed. This explores the duality of life, where different experiences coexist side by side, yet remain disconnected.
