Softness

Softness brings masculine strength into direct contact with delicacy. A pair of substantial hands meets the fragile presence of flowers, refusing the idea that tenderness must diminish the body that expresses it.

Part of the Yellow — Thin Air series, the work treats contradiction as a condition of identity rather than a problem to be solved. Tejeda presents masculinity as expansive enough to hold care, beauty and vulnerability alongside physical force.
