Anonymous Words #1 (2013), Displacements, 13 Wilkie Terrace, Singapore SG

Sitting with black yarn covering my eyes and my mouth, I am unable to see who sits before me or say a word to them. This way I offer my non-judgmental ears to listen to anyone who wishes to share words never spoken, words of forgiveness, acknowledgment, or release.

At the end, each person may choose a ribbon from the jar in front of me, which I then tie around their wrist.

Fear of judgment often holds us back from facing our past; I offer my ears to whatever the person fears to admit or share.
