Using a Ball-Jointed Doll (BJD) as the central figure, The weight of a quiet reverie explores a serene interplay between innocence and symbolic guardianship. A delicately styled BJD doll-like figure gently holds a rooster, evoking protection and nurturing. Captured in a studio using only natural window light, this photograph inviting contemplation about vulnerability, strength, and the subtle power within quiet moments.

Jane Oliveira is a conceptual fine art photographer whose artistic practice emerged from a unique transition from the world of medicine into the depths of the unconscious. Inspired by dreams, the aesthetics of classical masters, and the symbolic language of the subconscious, she creates poetic compositions using Ball-Jointed Dolls (BJDs) and miniature objects. Her images, strongly influenced by Baroque and Surrealist traditions, explore the fine line between the visible and the invisible, inviting viewers on an introspective journey where light, shadow, and silent emotion intertwine..
