The crutches accompany the body like an extension of it, marking a distinct rhythm with each step. Every step becomes a choreography: the support of the hands, the pressure in the armpits, the rhythmic sound of the metal against the floor. There is exposed vulnerability, yes… but also power: a person moving forward despite the limitation, mastering the movement with firmness and necessity. The crutches frame the posture, open the chest, tense the arms, reveal the musculature and the determination. And that gait… slower, more controlled, more conscious… awakens a special attention: each movement is an invitation to observe closely, to imagine the effort, the balance, and the particular rhythm of the assisted and displayed body.
