Encased 33

"Encased" explores the tension between presence and isolation through a series of single-exposure photographs capturing mannequins behind storefront glass. Reflections of the surrounding world merge with the posed stillness of these figures, creating layered scenes where reality and illusion coexist. The glass becomes both frame and barrier—offering visibility while enforcing separation. The series invites reflection not just on what we see, but how we see - what remains behind the glass beyond our reach.
