Description
This piece is about the tension between hiding and revealing. The rough modeling paste, full of its own moods and imperfections, reflects a time when I wasn’t ready to fully show myself or embrace who I am. Its raw texture mirrors the emotions and complexities that lie beneath the surface—unfinished yet bold in its expression.
The body, outlined yet covered, represents a moment in my journey when love for myself was hesitant, shadowed by doubt. The gold sprinkles scattered in the background remind me that even in moments of insecurity, there is light and potential. Gold—a symbol of warmth and value—represents the hidden treasures within, even when we aren’t ready to fully embrace them.
Positioned at the start of my exhibition, this piece reflects the early stages of my self-discovery: the uncertainty, the hesitation, and the quiet power waiting to emerge.
