Oral description:

“It's our throat, I have this feeling of relativity, and, uh, composition is, uh, really linear to show the process of, of, like, uh, the whole condition and also the pain of, uh, um, swallowing. So this is kind of the throat, and this is our sort of pain that's also getting swollen. And it represents our issue paradigm, and we use the transparent clues to, uh, reflect on the, like the, um, a kind of fluidity, uh, that's associated with it. [...] Yeah, with a paper clip. With a paper clip, yeah. And, um, I think it also shows the process in this kind of construction, between the flow. There is actually something moving. Yeah, something disrupting the throat. Mm hmm.
