Apnea was born from a moment in my life when I felt submerged beneath the weight of duties and responsibilities — a place where my sense of self and my inner voice seemed lost. It is the sensation of holding one's breath; of struggling to let go, to pause, to ask for help without making a sound. The series explores this inner state: the tension between endurance and surrender, the exhaustion of carrying too much, and the struggle to reconnect with oneself.
