Portraits of female protagonists contemplating the human condition. Smoking cigarettes - a gentle reminder of life’s brevity, often in the company of cats, gazing into the void. Tears leaving eyes or skies. Moments of introspection, being and becoming. Dreaming with eyes wide open. A vulnerable sense of strength.
