N1-N2-N3-REM focuses on the body in states where rest fails to stabilise. The title refers to the stages of sleep, which here appear fragmented and unresolved. The project combines textile work and video performance. A striped blanket is reconfigured into a disoriented pattern, where repetition and misalignment replace comfort.
In the video, the body moves through cycles of concealment, struggle, and stillness. Filmed in a corridor of university building, the work displaces sleep from its expected setting, extending insomnia into everyday space. The blanket functions as both environment and constraint. Its surface becomes unstable, shifting with the body and resisting rest.

Structured around the stages of sleep, the performance follows their collapse into continuous struggle.

A large blanket is suspended in space. Its front presents an abstract textile surface, while the reverse becomes a screen for the video projection. A mattress is placed in front of it.
