This photograph explores the instinctive pull toward nature as a rebellion against the constraints of constructed reality. Painted gold and wrapped in fur, I return to something ancient and primal while shedding the routines of modern life. The work reflects a longing for freedom from digital overstimulation, social expectations, and the machinery of everyday existence. It becomes a ritual of unlearning, a stripping away of physical and symbolic layers. Through this act, I reconnect with a body that remembers and a landscape that welcomes.
