This series consists of fragments of portraits taken from family photographs. Unlike the original photographs, the focus is not on the person themselves, but on the details of their clothing, highlighted by color.
Deprived of their bodies, these fragments become traces of presence.The drawings explore memory, absence, and what remains of people through the objects they leave behind.
