 "All the paintings in this journey are united by a fire. The heat of the fire and the weight of the dress have transformed a waste into an object to be observed with pleasure.
 A moment's mistake created destruction, but time heals all wounds. In fact, by picking them up again after years and placing them in a new context, a discarded object has been given a new lease of life.
 I thank again the person who advised me not to throw them away because it allowed me to relive the moment with different eyes.
 The folds, the curves, the changes that these plastic objects have undergone represent how we experience life, which at times seems to bend us but instead forges us into stronger people.
 The fire has passed, leaving a mark that is slowly becoming fainter and fainter."
