A seated figure holds position against a worn wall, enclosed by objects that remain fixed and close. The space compresses inward, keeping the subject contained within a narrow field.
The image operates through restraint. Nothing expands beyond its boundary; every element reinforces proximity and limits movement. The result is a controlled stillness where presence is defined by confinement rather than scale.
Part of the Caryatis series, a long-term body of work exploring traditional Greek costume through directed portraiture.
