I am not a map, I am a labyrinth is an attempt at symbolic justice after confronting the incest experienced in the artist's childhood, exploring the history of mental imbalance in the field of love, both personal and global, and at the same time an ecofeminist nod in parallel to the climate crisis, where the physical, psychological, moral, and institutional vulnerability is explored in the face of the powers that surround us from childhood to death and how they directly affect women.
