Unraveling oneself
SURVIVE YOURSELF is an invitation to sit down on the rocking chair and take the words dangling above your head into consideration; embrace any possible discomfort, soothe your soul, or be curious, peel off layer-by-layer what resides in your mind and body.

‘I doubt, therefore I am’ – Descartes
