Rituals of Restraint

„Rituals of Restraint“ is a photographic series rooted in the visual language of power dressing. Structured silhouettes, sharp tailoring, and monochrome styling evoke control—but the tension lies in their undoing. Beneath the composed surface, the images pulse with quiet sensuality.
The work moves between sterile white spaces and amber-lit interiors, staging a dialogue between containment and release. Bodies become sculptural and intimate—poised, veiled, and on the verge of exposure. Gender flows freely, the gaze holds weight, and every frame becomes part of a silent choreography of control, desire, and transformation.
