Hammu is the name of the hamster I had as a child. It seemed it was my only friend and being to identify with. One day it disappeared from the cage and was never to be seen again; that event marked the end of my childhood, of unreserved trust and commitment. The work is a visualization of memories I have about the event ,of obsessions, tediousness, and loss. (SV)
