"Pigs" is a three-photograph series examining society's sexualizing and judgmental gaze that reduces individuals to mere bodies while erasing their identity. The masked figures lose their individuality, symbolically transformed into animals. Drawing from medieval shame masks historically used to punish women for perceived transgressions, the work critiques social control mechanisms, imposed behavioral norms, and the persistent objectification of female bodies.
