"Fenster" is a figurative textile work that explores the tension between vulnerability and devotion. The piece features a ghost-like figure inside a private space, gazing out of a window with "heart eyes"—a symbol of a soul in a state of longing and constant readiness for a specific person.

In a dramatic contrast, an "Amore" figure is depicted outside the window, aiming its arrow toward the interior. This illustrates the external force of affection and the inherent risk of being "struck" by love. The tufted phrase "don't look" adds a layer of irony and protection to the work; it acts as a warning or a shield, contrasting with the figure’s open-hearted gaze.

The work captures the act of keeping a metaphorical window open for someone, even when it means feeling exposed or "haunted" by expectation. It is a visual narrative about the courage to remain seen and the private universe one creates while waiting for a connection to be fulfilled.
