The Weight of Scarcity
In this powerful image from Shcheglova Marina’s series, a young woman lies amidst symbols of deprivation — dried fish and empty vessels — her wide eyes conveying both despair and quiet defiance. Shot in stark black and white, the composition evokes historical famines while speaking to universal themes of endurance. The contrast between light and shadow heightens the emotional gravity, turning personal suffering into a timeless visual statement about scarcity and spirit.
