The Axis Where I Become 🜃

(Between Shadow and Self) This work marks a moment of alignment — the place where struggle no longer pulls in opposite directions, but gathers into a single line. It speaks to the tension between shadow and self, between what weighs the body and what refuses to yield within the spirit. The figure is not a character, but an act. A decision made inside resistance. A will that forms because of limitation, not in spite of it. Here, becoming is not sudden or heroic. It is deliberate. It is embodied. It is earned. This axis is where I stand — and where I begin again.
