The Quiet Game

The Quiet Game Artist Statement (Mini-Series) On a deep blue table, she lies — a figure caught between surrender and defiance. A black and orange bat dangles loosely from one hand; the other cradles bright yellow balls, vivid against the darkness pressing in. The body glows where fragile light finds it, while long shadows crawl across the surface, distorting shape and space. This series plays with the language of competition — bright colours usually signalling energy and joy — yet here everything is slowed, weighted. Is she defeated, or simply deep in thought, gathering herself before the final move? Light was elusive, and the angles of the shoot unforgiving. Yet in those difficult moments, something honest surfaced: a body breathing not for the game, but for itself — suspended between loss and victory, in a silent, glowing pause.
