Artwork description:

A stylite was an ascetic who lived on top of pillars as a form of spiritual devotion and discipline. They believed that mortifying their body contributed to their soul's salvation.

This photograph shows a woman who is sitting on the top of a pillar, her head obscured by smoke. The act of removing her clothing suggests the unveiling of her true self, freeing herself from social norms, and expectations, to reveal her true identity. The woman's solitary posture and the height of the column emphasize her independence, reinforcing the idea that this is a journey of self-discovery and liberation.
