Behind the Shot: Women's Empowerment Close-up

"It is part of a photo series called "Duality," where I used collage techniques to combine two different styles of images. The goal was to show different aspects of the same person. I juxtaposed photographs of the model in everyday clothes with her stage persona, reflecting the part hidden deep within that emerges through her creativity. When looking at the photograph separately, I like to interpret it as female strength in a broad sense. True strength lies within, while the gaze reflects what’s inside."
