In the same light, Chapter 01, 2026

There is a form of love we rarely name. Not spectacular, not loud. Just a presence.
A touch, a warmth, a gaze that says it all.

This series is an exploration of affection and love between friends and loved ones.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Enchantress, Shawn 2026
// This exploration was born from a desire to slow down and reconnect with what truly matters. Through a fictional figure inspired by Beninese spiritual traditions, I explore ritual, nature, and contemplation as a quiet journey between the visible and the invisible. At the crossroads of magical realism, poetry, and mythology, this exhibition is an invitation to pause, observe, and reconnect with the subtle magic that surrounds us.

I would like to sincerely thank for his invaluable support throughout the development of this artistic exploration and my first exhibition, during the in Grand Popo, within the residency.
Thank you to .willina for this beautiful production and her commitment.
A special thank you to ( ) for her remarkable textile work, which made the creation of the costume possible.
Thank you to for her energy, presence, and role as both muse and producer on the ground in Dakar.

A big shout out to .km and for their support 🤍
