RED- a colour loaded with contradiction.
For women, does it signify love, prosperity, and marriage, or does it stand for danger, unrest, and sacrifice?

Grief has a gaze.
It belongs to women married by force, raised to provide, and taught to silence desire. These images ask what remains unspoken behind their eyes.

Silence is layered.
Women move through the world behind a translucent defense—meant to protect, yet never meant to be permanent.

Strength does not announce itself.
It settles in the way women lift their gaze, carry their bodies, and learn to honour themselves in a world that rarely pauses to do so.

Pink becomes a site of remembrance. It holds the emotions women are taught to soften—care, vulnerability, and devotion—while questioning the roles and expectations that often accompany them.

An ongoing series of self-portraits exploring identity, resilience, and emotional memory.

This work serves as a visual laboratory informing my approach to storytelling, character, and intimacy across documentary and narrative forms.
