Tension Remains
By Maria Saukhina
2026
Tension Remains investigates the persistence of physical and psychological tension through the relationship between fabric and canvas. Material becomes a site of resistance, carrying the suggestion of forces that are no longer directly visible. The work extends the exploration of support, constraint and transformation developed through Becoming Image.
