My Story Let Me Tell It (2024– ) is an ongoing body of work by Analize Nicolini structured across four acts: mirrored text, suspended installation, filmed public reading / moving image, and sculptural body cast. The project investigates authorship, intersex self-enunciation, narrative sovereignty, bodily legibility, opacity, accessibility, juridical language, and exhibition form.

 

Beginning with a phrase applied to a mirror, the work expands into spatial, vocal, juridical, and sculptural forms. Across its acts, the statement “My Story Let Me Tell It” moves from reflection to architecture, from architecture to voice, and from voice to the body as a contested surface. The project refuses identity as fixed representation and approaches self-narration as a material, spatial, and political practice.
