This photo is a part of "Behind the Mountain."The project starts with the end of an intimate relationship. The protagonist immerses herself in sadness and pain, triggering a retrospective of the past. She oscillates between reality and fantasy. In a dream, she climbs the mountain they had promised to conquer together, she strives to see what's on the other side of the mountain, only to discover that the other side is still a mountain, and in reality, there is nothing else. Ultimately finding solace and redemption.
