These underwater images involve a woman and her symbolic relationship to a simple piece of white fabric. At first glance, most would easily identify with the raw beauty of this natural connection. However metaphorically speaking, the piece of fabric has become an outlet and escape for this women's angst considering she lives in a world that continues to view and treat women as objects. Behind her cloth she can be who she wants and express herself.
