The performance was entirely improvised, unfolding as a dialogue between two artists where Konstantina uses her body as a dynamic tool, moving within the natural environment. It is a conceptual response to violence against women and their rights, using the body as a vessel for gestures of freedom and growth.
Through mirrors, double exposure, and the surrounding landscape, the body becomes both subject and signifier, connecting the personal to wider cultural politics. The use of organza fabric adds an ethereal quality, evoking both vulnerability and protest. The mirrors reflect acts of self-reflection, while also creating links between past, present, and future generations of women.
The performance was documented on a single medium format film as part of my ongoing approach to working slowly, intentionally, and with minimal waste. The resulting photographs capture a moment of protest, where the body speaks through movement, gesture, and space.
