- THE MODEL
Original artwork description
The work explores the relationship between the gaze, self-presentation, and the fleeting nature of a moment, through the figure of a woman posing on the beach. Her pose feels both spontaneous and consciously staged, creating a tension between how we choose to present ourselves and how we are perceived by others. The natural landscape contrasts with this act of self-presentation, offering a space of freedom while also becoming a space of exposure. The image becomes a quiet reflection on identity, presence, and the power of a moment transformed into an image.
