The salt spray hangs heavy in the air as a woman sits perched upon the jagged rocks, her fingers dancing across the strings of a harp. She does not look at the instrument, nor does she look at the viewer; instead, her gaze drifts toward the vast, restless expanse of the ocean. The scene feels suspended in a moment of profound introspection. Above her, two birds cut through the sky,…
