Beneath Satin 2024
This editorial project explores the theme of invisible labour through the lens of ballet.
Drawing from photographs, writing, and existing artistic works, the editorial weaves together a narrative that exposes the often unseen physical and emotional toll demanded by the dance style. By juxtaposing moments of beauty with those of pain, the project seeks to subvert ballet’s enduring ideal of flawlessness, revealing the labour that underpins its seemingly effortless grace.
