OPEN HEART by Maria Pleshkova.
To live with an open heart means to have faith and trust. Also, it means to be vulnerable. It’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome.
But in the end, vulnerability can be a sign of strength.

This is a single frame photograph, light painting technique. I was moving with a small flashlight in total darkness, illuminating parts of my body. Exposure time – 25 seconds. The process of creating this piece looked like a dance in the dark.
