'Few Things We Left Unsaid'

Few Things We Left Unsaid, is a text-based neon installation. Each piece presents a different imperative command centered on the self, such as “Remember Me,” or “Love Me.” The light that radiates from these pieces has a clear straightforward effect on each phrase. Following Fafaliou’s background in performance, these works create a confessional narrative that reduces strong emotional intensities down to short, two-word phrases.
