"Mantis" - a monochrome portrait where a fragile praying mantis explores an unadorned female face. This serene interplay symbolizes a delicate equilibrium in nature, mirrored in human vulnerability. The woman's closed eye beneath the mantis signifies an acceptance of this intimate exchange, illustrating our existence's intricate tie to life's delicate dance. "Mantis" isn't just a photograph, but a poetic meditation on our shared fragility.
