UNSENT

2022.

This performance started with a need.
A need to share and get rid of all those thoughts
that were destined to specific people at specific times in my life.
They were the letters I never sent.
So, I wrote down those letters and put them in see-through enveloppes
with the date and the name of the people written on them.
A way to make them quite inviting to be red.
While all being sealed with wax,
forcing you to break the confidentiality and secrecy of letters
if you were to actually satisfy your own curiosity and open them.

I've realised people had different behaviours towards it,
some only opening the ones destined to people they knew,
others only opening the ones without any specific addressees.
I've also realised I was particularly fine
with people having access to such a private part of my life and thoughts.
They were not mine anymore and I had finally found a way to get rid of them.
