Inner Abyss captures the stillness and introspection of the pandemic. The exposed feet and breasts convey vulnerability, while the relaxed pose and drifting smoke reflect surrender and fleeting escape. The pomegranate, symbolizing life and renewal in Persian culture, adds a layer of quiet gratitude. Each drawing’s tone and linework shift with the day’s mood, some soft and calm, others darker and more intense. This series reflects a meditative exploration of vulnerability and resilience, with the title capturing the depth of inner reflection.
