Bodies Under Pressure - curated by Jessica L

A curation by Jessica L, Head of Exhibitions at - The human body is often the first place where tension, expectation, and control are inscribed. This collection brings together works that explore physical and emotional pressure through posture, distortion, movement, and fragmentation. Figures appear strained, suspended, or caught in moments of resistance, reflecting the demands of contemporary life. Rather than depicting collapse, these works reveal endurance, adaptation, and the quiet resilience of the body as a site of experience.
