FRAGILITY
Kamile Staneliene
Lithuania

Sometimes in life, we face moments when we feel completely shattered and broken inside. There are times when we manage to stand up on our own and piece ourselves back together after difficult experiences, and other times when we need the help of others to heal. Painful moments inevitably leave scars, but despite everything, what truly matters is to survive, to move forward, and to leave those moments behind.
