APART was born from the painful experience of being with someone - but only partly. Never wholly. It explores the beauty that resides in this pain, the paradox of having found love, yet being unable to love that person in all their complexities.
APART speaks to the emotional tension that arises from this divide, which is visualized through the posture of the female figure, embodying the stretch and strain of longing. In contrast, the male figure’s body position conveys self-defense, a retreat from full vulnerability. Together, they express the emotional distance between two people who are close, yet remain apart - held back by an inability to fully embrace one another.
