This piece explores the tension between being seen and feeling erased. While the central eye remains alert—a symbol of the internal hyper-awareness required to live with an invisible illness—the surrounding fabric is frayed and unravelling.

It captures the physical and mental exhaustion of trying to hold oneself together when the body feels precarious. The "lightness" in the title isn't about ease; it’s about the terrifying sensation of disappearing while the world watches. Ultimately, it is about the universal human struggle to remain present while facing our own fragility.
