This series examines the nature of the gaze through a studio environment constructed with models, mirrors, and layered visual elements. The studio functions as a stage where participants draw and observe, while I observe them as they work from the models. It becomes an ocean of shifting gazes and charged, transitional moments. In this setting, the act of drawing and reflecting dissolves the boundary between looking outward and looking inward, with my role positioned above it all—witnessing and capturing the unfolding moment.
