Already on the photograph of the tree the female figure has left an imprint on the trees trunk, hidden and yet in plain sight. Is it the same in love? What do I show to my partner? How much can I open myself, and what do entrust him with?
“Wood Woman” stands as a symbol of being accepted and loved, even when the cover can not completely be given up. The submersion within the forest visualizes this simultaneity, always to be somewhat hidden and yet to reveal parts of oneself.
