- What Stays Contained
Original artwork description
With this image, I wanted to show a state, not a narrative.
A moment where everything appears ordered—and carries its tension precisely because of that.
The glass vessels stand for control, structure, and the need to contain. The water is calm, clear, without movement. It occupies space without spreading. The fruit is present, tangible, ripe. It represents what already exists, what is visible and real.
The branch is the connecting element. It does not submit, but it integrates. It crosses boundaries without damaging them. Growth within a system, not outside of it.
I was interested in the balance between containment and movement, between holding and allowing. This image does not depict conflict. It shows control that is consciously chosen—and life that finds its place within that order.
Nothing is explained.
Everything is deliberate.
