Collaborative exhibition.
Drawing on the metaphor of the Sword of Damocles, this work brings together a pair of silver cutlery found in an antique market, a symbol of aristocratic legacy and the structures of authority that accompany it. The ceramic forms speak to the fragility of interpersonal relationships, while a sound piece, triggered by the presence of visitors beneath the installation, serves as a reminder that power is inseparable from responsibility.
