A lone figure moves forward despite inner tension and resistance. The fragmented body leaves only the essential: movement, effort, and will. The arc above the figure becomes both a weapon and a burden, a reminder of the weight of choice. The work speaks of the hero's solitude and of those moments when you have to make a decision on your own and keep moving forward anyway.
