Drawing on Silvia Federici's research on the witch hunts, this project examines the mechanisms of bodily control and power reproduction within the mother-daughter relationship , how motherhood, amid the interweaving of intimacy and violence, becomes a hidden site through which the logic of capitalism's discipline over women's bodies is silently inherited and perpetuated across generations.

















Through the lens of painting and sculpture, this project investigates how the removal of facial features and identity information transforms the human body into a pure aesthetic object — multiplying the arm as a figurative form across an ordered matrix, the work destabilizes the boundary between "thing" and "person," inviting viewers to project their own experience onto what remains.
