Symbiosis explores the coexistence between the HIV virus and the human body. The collection shows how the body adapts and evolves with the virus, translating microscopic forms into wearable pieces. Through fabric manipulation, leather treatments, and hardware, the virus’ symptoms and structures are translated, revealing its complex presence and evolution within the body.
