Gabrielle van der Merwe – Stretch

About the work :

Waking up from a cat nap, your body is stiff and uncomfortable. A stretch is called for; euphoric and satisfying. The state of being is uncertain and in and out of consciousness. Physically extend, make longer or wider to reach full capacity; to find yourself once again.
