ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Part of the series “Reflections on Female Nature in the 21st Century.”
The work reflects how women today are often forced to hide their tenderness behind a mask of strength, adapting to society’s demands for constant struggle and proof. The face disappears, and true nature retreats into shadow.
The image asks: is the price of this endless performance of strength too high?
