My shielded heart

Suspended in space, My Shielded Heart tells a story of both protection and longing. A city rises around the heart, built like walls to shield it from the outside world, guarding it against past wounds, fears, and the possibility of pain.

Yet within this fortress, a quiet desire lingers. The heart longs to break free, to open itself, to soar beyond its barriers. This piece captures that universal tension: the instinct to protect versus the deep yearning to be seen, to love, and to be free.

A poetic reflection on vulnerability and strength, My Shielded Heart invites the viewer to explore their own balance between fear and freedom.
