Conceptual psychological render. 50mm cine lens, eye-level. A figure standing in a room, arms slightly crossed — the physical language of someone performing comfort they don't fully feel. His shadow on the wall is open, arms at sides — the unguarded version behind the performance. Deep navy and black atmosphere. Cold white rim from above. Deep purple bleeding from the upper walls. The shadow reveals what the posture conceals. Hard edges. Graphite floor. Matte surfaces. The performance has a shadow that doesn't perform.
