Compulsion is a wearable sculpture that explores the psychological phenomenon of repetition, where unresolved experiences resurface through recurring patterns of behavior. The work stages a distorted form of care in which gestures of affection and control become entangled, reflecting the unstable boundary between protection and domination.

Through a mechanical interaction between body and object, the sculpture creates a situation in which intimacy becomes uneasy and ambiguous. Acts that might normally signify comfort or closeness are redirected through an apparatus that complicates their intention, exposing how care can coexist with tension and restraint.

Through this object, I embody the complex emotional terrain of memory, using the body as both site and subject. It serves as a materialized confrontation with past pain—reclaimed, mechanized, and exposed.
