My voice belongs to you draws on a series of reconfigured hypnosis scripts to proposes a silent, persistent voice. It utters itself into being, without a body. There is a suggestion of the experience of speech in trance. The work borrows from auto-hypnosis models, in which a text may be recorded and rehearsed at home.
