Trapped in an invisible space like 4 walls close together and claustrophobic, the dazed and lost gaze of someone immersed in the dark who turns her head to feel presences behind her shoulders. Closed in on herself, scared, she finds the strength to raise her arm and take it out of that ball shape she had created to protect herself, to disappear. The arm lingers, the hand opens to touch that invisible wall in the darkness. That wall will support her to get up, on tiptoe so as not to make noise, escaping from the box to see the light again. Getting up without breaking the silence, getting up without shouting, showing respect for the life she had lived until then in an invisible and narrow prison and finally running barefoot under the sun in an unknown dimension called freedom.

No invisible wall is a trap if our courage wins and we make the wall of that dark box a shoulder to lean on to pull up our body that has not given up and stop being afraid of fear.

The young sculptress Jana Buettner investigates fears, conflicts and problems of the social individual through allegorical still images that use only the body without surrounding objects or symbols for our easy reading. Her women, her groups speak through movement, contortion and the incredible expressiveness of the faces in an impeccable Academic modeling that makes her works books and texts open to a vast audience that seeks deep meaning and absolute aesthetic beauty.
