In Retreat into Self , the body contracts, protects itself, withdraws into its own interiority. The figure, rendered in black and white, adopts an almost embryonic posture, evoking both vulnerability and the necessity of withdrawal. The background, composed of intertwined circular lines, acts as a mental construct: a stream of thoughts, an inner turmoil.
The economy of color reinforces the expressive power of the gesture. The body becomes a refuge, an enclosed but living territory, a place of survival as much as of reconstruction.
This work speaks of the vital need to withdraw in order to better find oneself, making withdrawal not an escape, but an act of care and resistance.
