HAPPINESS IS A SHARP BLADE   2024

​

Bust for Jewelry, 300 Razor-blades
46 x 38 x 18 cm

​

"J'adore les femmes" MACT/CACT, Bellinzona, 2024

​

This unsettling sculpture transforms the razor blade, a modern icon of grooming and control, into a meditation on beauty, violence, and vulnerability. Composed of 300 intertwined razor blades displayed on a jewellery bust, the work confronts the viewer with the paradox of aesthetics as both seduction and threat.
