"21 weeks" is an intimate work by Anna Carbone, created for the AbstrACTION art collective with themes of decay, orchard, and refuge. The piece reflects a profound personal loss: Anna’s son Luca, who passed away at 21 weeks due to an infection that also endangered her life. The artwork portrays her collapsed lung, overwhelmed by fluid, symbolizing the physical and emotional toll. Though her son is gone, a part of her heart remains forever touched by his absence.
