La donna vaso (The woman vase)

"The woman vase" is a symbolic photo artwork denouncing the reductive view of women as mere aesthetics. Behind the beauty of flowers lies the imposed role of a container. Yet the woman resists, reclaiming herself and her freedom through small acts that defy her objectification.
