Exploring the intent of the ‘gaze’ in an effort to regain autonomy in spaces often associated with privacy and vulnerability. Ella Peck’s Untitled (White), 2025, is constructed with recycled materials to cast a window frame, blurring boundaries between private interiors and public view. The gesture and routine in the work invites reflection on the constructed nature of both physical spaces and emotional openness.
