In this piece, part of my series exploring people on pathways, I capture a fleeting moment of pause amid a journey. The woman stops to engage with her phone, lost in a digital world, while her dog, sensing the allure of the beach ahead, looks back with an eagerness that contrasts her stillness.

This interaction serves as a commentary on the balance between our digital distractions and the natural world around us.

The tension between the desire to move forward and the allure of connectivity highlights the subtle, everyday choices we make and how they can alter the course of our experiences. Through this artwork, I invite viewers to reflect on their own paths and the moments that shape their journeys.
