My master collection « Numéro Vendeur 4 », born from eleven months of civil service at Emmaüs Genève, an experience through which I came to perceive this space as a purgatory of capitalism. Objects, garments, memories and companions coexist there in a state of unresolved tension, caught between abandonment and the possibility of reactivation, awaiting a judgment that capitalism perpetually defers. In this suspension, alienation becomes visible: a condition that capitalism produces but never resolves. Within this purgatory, I found myself confronted with my own adolescent obsessions, held in a constant pull between attraction and repulsion. The collection embodies this friction: the seductive and violent contradictions of labor and of capitalism itself. The body that labors, wanders, waits, ends up merging with what constrains it. It becomes alien in its own flesh.
