Through Her Eyes considers the threshold between childhood and adulthood, where imagination and possibility gradually give way to the structures of the adult world.
A young girl pauses before a gallery, her pink bicycle and youthful presence anchoring her in a moment of curiosity. Within her immediate sight, color emerges as vivid, expansive, and full of possibility. The world surrounding her remains rendered in black and white, creating a visual tension between the openness of childhood and the more measured reality of adulthood.
The photograph draws on Ursula K. Le Guin’s observation that “The creative adult is the child that survived,” suggesting that childhood does not simply disappear with age, but remains as an underlying force within us.
The gallery becomes more than a physical space. It represents imagination itself, a place where curiosity can survive, where possibility remains open, and where the child continues to look forward, even as the adult world takes shape around her.
