Sometimes people become invisible simply because they are always there. This is how roles emerge—quietly, almost imperceptibly—until they begin to feel natural. Roles in which a person is expected to offer support, patience, understanding, care, and an endless willingness to be needed. Day after day, they become a source of comfort for others, a place where worries, exhaustion, and expectations can be laid to rest. In this work, a woman gradually transforms into a piece of furniture—a chair. An object whose presence is taken for granted. Something to lean on after a long day, to burden with one's thoughts, to enjoy for its comfort, and then leave behind while moving on with life. But the chair remains. The hourglass in her hand, its base shattered, continues to measure the passage of time. Yet it releases more than sand. Bees emerge from within—symbols of labor, care, and the endless unseen work that so often goes unnoticed. Each bee becomes a fleeting moment of life transformed into effort for someone else. While another person benefits from the warmth she creates, her own time slowly escapes the vessel. One of the bees catches her attention. In that moment, she seems to notice what has been happening all along. She confronts a simple and unavoidable truth: time continues to move forward, even when our lives become a series of duties accepted as natural and unquestioned. The most important element of the work is the empty seat. It is unoccupied. It waits. This emptiness transforms the painting into a frozen performance—an action that never truly ends. Its participants change, yet the role itself remains the same. Before you is not merely the image of a woman-chair, but a place that invites you to complete the story yourself. What will occupy this seat? Whose exhaustion, whose expectations, whose needs will take up this space? Or perhaps the viewer will discover themselves there. Or perhaps they will simply leave their belongings behind. The performance continues. It existed long before this work was created, and it will continue long after it. The only question is what role each of us plays within it and what will you do with the vacant seat.
