I have always been inspired by Lucio Fontana's Holes and Cuts, where the canvas is opened toward a space beyond the image itself. In my work with passports, the various perforations perform a similar gesture. The small holes, stamps, and cut-through marks become portals between the two-dimensional and the spatial, between image and object. 

Like Fontana's cuts and holes, these interventions transform the passport from a closed bureaucratic document into a site of dialogue, connecting the physical and the conceptual, the personal journey and the systems of power, control, freedom, and belonging that shape human mobility.
