28 lapsus linguae invites viewers into a sensory environment where video, sound, and sculpture converge to explore themes of impermanence and transformation. The works—ranging from delicate ash imprints on handmade paper to large and medium glass sculptures—create a fragile yet dynamic relation between presence and absence. The resonant hum of the video installation draws the viewer toward the organic red, mirrored, and clear glass forms, each embodying the tension between materiality and immateriality, much like the act of speaking—constantly shifting and morphing.

Through audiovisual elements, blown and silvered glass, and performative traces on paper, ‘28 lapsus linguae’ constructs a shared language of vulnerability. Glass—fragile yet transformative—becomes a metaphor for the creative process: a journey that unfolds and reveals new forms. The work invites us into this process, where the act of making, the craft itself, becomes as meaningful as the final pieces.

The fluidity of molten glass mirrors the nature of language: both must twirl and evolve to remain alive. Each piece embodies duality—its surface and interior dimensions—inviting viewers to move through them, like a needle passing through fabric, and between them, much like the layers of meaning that language perpetually generates. The space, resonating with warmth akin to the interior of the mouth, shifts in response to movement, forging new connections between body, object, and space.

With its sense of ephemerality and precariousness, the exhibition reflects on the fleeting nature of artistic practice, meaning, and existence. It challenges us to consider how both the world around us and our perception of it are in a constant, transformative state of flux.
