I lie here and look at myself, but I can’t see myself in bed. Aware of the inability to portray 10 minutes of the months and weeks that I spend in bed, versus the 10 minutes of 10 minutes I spend elsewhere. Folds, on the other hand, can last forever. Folds are imprints of my movements and at the same time I am them. 

Folds show the hidden parts of my body. Of my intestine, my efficiency, my screen time, my tablets, my boredom.

Folds can’t get bigger than 140 to 200cm. For €10 a day, they are only 90to200cm. But I get food and service in return. 
I wonder how much money I would have to pay for the folds to get bigger. Till they are so big, that I only need to lie down for a few minutes to see my time in bed.
