In a world where boundaries blur between self and structure, this image confronts the silent weight society imposes on identity. Suspended upside-down, the figure reflects a fragile balance between freedom and confinement. But it is the shadow—monumental, immovable—that commands the scene: not a person, but a projection. This paradox asks not how heavy things are, but where the heaviness comes from. Through this visual metaphor, I explore how much of our burden is not chosen, but constructed.
