Sofia Reshmi - Hola Chica No Panica

Longing: Distance reflects on the invisible space between longing and protection.

Handwritten words and layered materials become fragments of an emotional landscape where desire and hesitation exist side by side. Tape appears repeatedly—not only as a physical element, but as a visual language that connects, interrupts and conceals at the same time.

Rather than illustrating relationships, the works explore the moments when connection feels within reach, yet something remains unspoken. Every layer suggests that closeness is rarely straightforward; it is shaped by memory, experience and the boundaries we create for ourselves.

The series offers no simple answers. Instead, it encourages viewers to consider how vulnerability and distance often become part of the same story.

Each work quietly reflects on the courage it takes to remain open.
