Using embroidery to create her unfinished lips. Fabienne meditatively engages with the back and forth tugging movement with her body. This dialogue between artists and material is integral to her process, as she probes and contemplates how we as a society speak about individual wounds, hidden traumas and pervasive power structures in our communities.
