Jessica is a piece that subconsciously evolved from a theatre script, “Pillow of My Heart”, short for, “Let me Rest on the Pillow of my Heart”, written by the artist.

The script is about a widower, whose wife, Jessica, committed suicide and the husband after a year becomes schizophrenic calling for his ancestors but only his wife Jessica appears as a ballet dancer.

The production was released in 2020 in a basement because of Covid restrictions.
