WHAT WE DO IS SECRET   

                             
                  This short series explores the  emotional terrain of belonging and collective memory within a 
                  football community. By fragmenting bodies in motion, the artist blurs the lines between
                  individual and collective experience.
        
                  The photographs, constructed through abstraction, create a tension between stillness and 
                  motion that translates into a visual metaphor for the experience of belonging. Through 
                  this series, the artist invites the viewer to reflect on how everyday rituals, such as morning
                  or afternoon football games, can serve as essential spaces for emotional renewal and shared 
                  understanding. This series is a meditation on the emotional return of the body post-trauma, 
                  re-engaging in activity within a “secret” safe space, rarely found in the sport.



                  This exhibition was conceptualized, produced, and brought to life as a collaboration
                  between Beginner Swimmer Works and Secret Futebol Club. This exhibition was held at
                  Depot NYC at 222 Roebling St, Brooklyn, New York in October 2024.
