Our collaborative project, Third Window, explores themes of objectification, agency, and perception—using photography not as a tool of limitation, but of reclamation.

In Third Window, a photographic transparency is taped to a window, then re-photographed, creating layers of separation and ambiguity. This technique disrupts fixed perspectives on the boundaries between interior and exterior, near and far, public and private. Through this layered approach, we question traditional power structures in photography, reframing the female subject as something beyond reach—ethereal, godlike––yet undeniably present.

The relationship between women and photography is complex and evolving, with ongoing discussions about representation, sexuality, and gender roles. By turning the lens on each other, our work examines the dynamics of looking and being seen, exposing the power imbalances inherent in observation. Third Window blurs reality and fiction, turning the act of seeing into an unsettling and intimate exchange.
