Photographs
Floral Bondage is a photo series that explores the tension between natural sensuality and mechanical constraint. The flowers embody the organic human erotic experience - tender, fleeting, and alive - while cold steel disentanglement puzzles, traditionally meant to be solved, serve as a rigid counterpoint. By repurposing these puzzles, some of which are designed to remain unsolvable, the series subverts their intended function, transforming them into symbols of erotic mystery and bondage.
Just as desire thrives in the space between tension and release, the puzzles reflect the paradox of longing within the thrill of restraint and the enigma of connection. The interplay of metal and flora suggests that eroticism, like the puzzles themselves, is not always about resolution but about the intricate dance of the entanglement itself.
