" ... for campisi, time is archaeological. she extracts everyday forms, bricks that hold walls, curtains that mark thresholds, language that promises inclusion, and strips their function. once they can no longer fulfill their purpose, they are no longer ordinary. encased in resin or translated into grids of beadwork, they become contemporary reliquaries: preserved, protected, held in a suspended present. these objects do not say “that was then;” instead they say “this still is.” underlying this gesture is a quiet distrust of permanence, of safety, of systems that insist on stability.
