The tighter the knots around her body, the further Clara’s imagination takes flight. She finds herself naked, at the edge of the woods. The grass tickles her feet, a bramble scratches her skin, the trees whip her passionately. Clara meets her lover; the forest, her mistress… Nature.
Plus les noeuds se resserrent autour de son corps et plus l’imagination de Clara s’envole. Elle se retrouve alors, nue, à l’orée d’un bois. L’herbe lui chatouille les pieds, une ronce l’égratigne, … Clara rejoint son amante, la forêt. …
