fibre-based paper
This is a collection of black-and-white photographs, printed on fibre-based paper, featuring an Asian girl as the central character. The girl's strong personality is juxtaposed against the softness of the garden background, creating a compelling contrast. The presence of a flower in the garden adds a layer of symbolism, as it may represent the stereotype of personality commonly associated with Asian women. However, the girl's depicted personality challenges and defies this stereotype, presenting a nuanced and complex representation of Asian women.
