Reflecting Wounds

performance

(2022-2023)



about:

Within this artistic journey, there is no defined beginning or end, no rigid sequence of events. Instead, there exists a profound exploration of shared memories through the evocative power of imagery. "Reflecting Wounds" becomes a mirror reflecting the untold stories of the past, the present, and the unspoken narratives that linger in the collective consciousness.

Through this performance, Franko B not only shares stories but also embodies the role of a witness to the turbulent currents of history and the human experience. "Reflecting Wounds" serves as a compelling invitation for audiences to engage with the unspoken, the overlooked, and the deeply resonant tales that define our shared existence.
