"In Untitled #5, we find the girl and the dandelion again, still positioned as a patch on her dress, this time in black. The girl, remains with her eyes closed and gazes upwards, as if searching for something beyond her present, while holding a tuft of grass in her hand. The colour palette is cold and sombre: the gray background and black dress create a sharp contrast with the patch bearing the dandelion. The dandelion, white and delicate, stands out against a colourful background, a vibrant and flourishing nature, symbolising hope and desire emerging from desolation."



"In Untitled 5#, ritroviamo la ragazza e il soffione, sempre posizionato come una pezza sul suo vestito, questa volta nero. La ragazza, ancora con gli occhi chiusi, volge lo sguardo verso l'alto, come se cercasse qualcosa oltre il suo presente, mentre tiene in mano un ciuffo d’erba. La palette cromatica è fredda e triste: lo sfondo grigio e l’abito nero creano un contrasto netto con la pezza che rappresenta il soffione. Il soffione, bianco e delicato, si staglia luminoso su uno sfondo colorato, una natura viva e rigogliosa, simbolo di speranza e di desiderio che emerge dalla desolazione."
