An intimate close-up of a woman’s face. Parts of the face seem to have chipped away, leaving an impression of something once whole, now incomplete. Her expression is quiet and melancholic, as though she bears the weight of untold stories and silent sorrows.
The missing fragments reveal both vulnerability and resilience, suggesting an underlying narrative of beauty and imperfection. Subtly, the work speaks to the experience of women—how they are often seen as delicate, yet subjected to forces that attempt to diminish or break them. Despite this, the subject remains poised, a symbol of quiet strength amid the fractures, embodying both fragility and fortitude in equal measure.
