AUTOPORTRAIT IN MOUVEMENT is a 25-second HD video loop created in 2021 during a deeply transformative period marked by your fight against cancer. Far from being a static self-representation, this work embodies motion, fragility, and resilience, the ephemeral choreography of identity caught between dissolution and regeneration. The piece resists traditional notions of portraiture. Instead of capturing a fixed likeness, it reveals the self as a process—fluid, unstable, and perpetually becoming. The movement within the loop echoes the rhythms of the body under duress, the cycles of treatment and recovery, and the emotional oscillations between fear and hope. It is a visual meditation on impermanence, where the body is not merely represented but felt as a site of transformation. Philosophically, the work engages with phenomenology, embodied subjectivity, and existential vulnerability. In this way, the video becomes a temporal mirror reflecting not just a face, but a lived experience of illness, survival, and the shifting boundaries of selfhood. The loop format reinforces the cyclical nature of healing and suffering, while its brevity intensifies the emotional charge. Each repetition becomes a quiet insistence: I am still here, still moving, still becoming. The work does not seek closure, but rather opens a space for contemplation, where beauty is found not in perfection, but in persistence.
