Contrasting sharply with the archival materials—set in a vivid, almost neon red-pink hue—the monochrome photographs portray young girls gathered together, either posing solo, leaping, instinctively moving, or striking a pose with a fist, a hip, or a leg. Clad in loose, unassuming attire, they transcend the boundaries of their clothing, boldly affirming their presence. Their intense, expressionless stares amidst chaotic hair and movement reveal a vibrancy, power, and a sense of pride that once challenged societal norms.
