This black-and-white photography captures a powerful play of gaze and perspective. The image shows a young woman looking straight into the camera, while holding a camera of her own in front of her face. Her eyes, sharp and intense, meet those of the viewer, while the lens of her own camera acts as a mirror - as if creating a double layer of observation. The open blouse and braces add an evocative tension: a mix of playfulness, confidence and sensuality. The contrast between the white shirt and the dark accents of braces, hair and camera creates a graphic, almost minimalist composition.
What makes this work special is the metaphor inherent in it: who is really looking at whom here? Is she the subject, the artist, or both at the same time? The picture plays with the woman's role as both model and creator, with her pose exuding both power and mystery. The symmetry of the image, combined with the austere light and almost clinical white background, allows no distractions. Everything revolves around the meeting of gazes, around the question of control and perspective. This work is more than a portrait; it is a dialogue between seeing and being seen.
