This artwork is about a woman suffocating under endless expectations. She must juggle work, household chores, and raising children—while also meeting society’s demands for youth, beauty, and perfection. No one can embody all these roles at once, yet she tries, pushing herself beyond her limits.
 
The harder she strives, the tighter the invisible noose becomes. It’s not just exhaustion—it’s guilt, the feeling of never being enough. This weight steals her breath, her joy, her sense of self.
 
But where is the limit? When will she finally inhale without fear of failing again?
