"Unseen Moments: The Artist’s Private Collection": Once Upon a Time in the Past

In this piece, I capture a moment of poised anticipation — a cocooned self, beautifully unaware of the significant transformation that awaits.

There’s a gentle tension in the posture, a silent promise of metamorphosis. “Once Upon a Time in the Past” speaks to that tender threshold — the beauty of who we are before embracing our true becoming.
