Astenia

"Astenia" is a portrait that encapsulates the feeling of exhaustion often experienced during seasonal transitions. Framed by vibrant flowers, the figure exudes a subtle languor, as if the energy of spring surrounds her but does not fully reach her.

The interplay of bright colors and an abundance of flowers adds a dreamlike beauty, contrasting with the model’s serene yet weary expression. This contrast between the vitality of nature and the fatigue of the figure creates a visual tension that mirrors spring asthenia—a state where the body and mind struggle between renewal and exhaustion.

The carefully balanced composition draws the viewer’s attention to the face, capturing a moment of introspection amid the exuberance. Astenia is a photograph that speaks to nature’s cycles and their impact on our well-being, reminding us that even the most beautiful transitions come with moments of adjustment.
