In this sensual and philosophical work, I explore the fragility of the human core — the heart as a vessel of the soul.
That vulnerable and sensitive part which exists in everyone — even beneath layers of strength, control, and outward stability.

The anatomical precision of the heart becomes a metaphor for something real, tangible, and yet deeply exposed.
The tape marked FRAGILE crosses the heart as a reminder and a warning of care — something  people so often forget in their relationships with one another.

It is about sensitivity — not as weakness, but as depth.
And about the responsibility we carry —
to treat a human heart with care, including our own.
