Witness Mark functions as evidence. The piece does not dramatize transformation but records it. Its form resembles a notation left behind by force — an inscription created through contact rather than intention.
The materials appear worn, pressed, and slightly displaced, as if marked by an encounter that cannot be fully reconstructed. The object stands as proof that something has occurred, even if its origin remains unseen.
Within the act, this piece asserts that transformation leaves traces. It positions the body as an archive, where change is not narrated but physically registered.
