This installation follows five iterations of self-fabricated sculptures that emerged from a play on words. In this work, Aki imagines a ‘holder’ as an active word, shifting their understanding away from the noun ‘holder’ or handle as an everyday object. Through a playful arrangement of bent metal structures and workshop tools, they examine gestures of security—of ‘holding’ in place—as well as the energy shifts of a body moving between waking, stretching, and resting.
