The body speaks — but not always with voice. Silent Anatomy is a visual exploration of what happens beneath the skin: the silent language of organs, fluids, and internal systems that shape our identity, memory, and transformation. This series is a photographic triptych exploring the invisible narratives within the human body. Each image corresponds to a vital internal system and evokes a symbolic organ: the heart (seat of passion and emotional unrest), the lungs (space of expanding consciousness), the lymphatic system (an invisible network of protection and filtration).Their silent choreography is revealed through movement, transparency, and color — turning the body into a fluid archive of what we are and what we pass through. The project draws on the classical view of the body as a microcosm — rooted in the writings of Hippocrates, Plotinus, and Pliny the Elder, who saw the body as a mirror of the cosmos, its harmony or its imbalance. In the silence of organs, echoes the search for an ancient order — or its necessary reinvention.
