This installation explores long-term hospital confinement and the experience of the body subjected to medical control. Copper pipes are arranged around a hospital bed, forming a rigid, enclosing structure. They reference the clinical infrastructure of hospitals—systems designed to sustain life, yet often felt as restrictive, repetitive, and inescapable during prolonged stays.

Interwoven within the installation are drawings and small paintings on silk. These works function as fragments of memory—delicate, bodily records that contrast with the hardness of the copper. The silk carries marks that resemble scars, gestures, and imprints of repeated surgical interventions. Some drawings are encapsulated and stitched into frames, hand-striated with string, evoking sutures, wound closures, and the slow, repetitive act of healing. The frames become extensions of the body: held together, restrained, yet fragile.

The installation also includes an interactive heart sculpture developed in collaboration with Prof. Stanisław Bartkiewiczfrom Wrocław University of Science and Technology (Poland). The heart responds to the presence of the viewer—its rhythm accelerating as someone approaches and slowing to stillness when they move away. This interaction reflects vulnerability, dependence, and the fundamental human need for proximity and care within clinical environments.

Together, these elements form a spatial narrative about survival, bodily memory, and the psychological weight of medical spaces. The installation invites viewers to move carefully, becoming aware of their own presence and its impact—mirroring the fragile balance between observation, care, and intrusion.
