Portrait

Lit by a single source, the swimmer emerges from darkness into fragile light, droplets clinging to skin like fragments of breath. This portrait captures the quiet interval before exertion - a moment when the body steadies, the mind narrows, and anticipation outweighs action. It is the breath before the storm, where silence is charged with energy and resolve gathers unseen. Though rooted in sport, it speaks to a universal truth: that strength is shaped in silence before it is shown. More than a likeness, it is a study of concentration itself - the threshold between stillness and the explosive release to come.
