This participatory installation transforms the floor into a temporary field for embodied reading. A chalk hopscotch grid structures the space as a fragmented timeline. Crumpled balls of paper containing short poems are thrown, retrieved and unfolded through movement.
The short poems draw from subtle, often overlooked sensations in the artist’s daily life, appearing as small and fleeting fragments of experience. The childhood game of hopscotch becomes a structure for these texts, placing intimate reflection within a spatial structure of play. Each square functions as a provisional container, holding compressed traces of memory and emotion. In this way, the installation allows minor fragments to briefly attain scale and the overlooked to acquire presence.
