“Breathing in Stillness”

In Breathing in Stillness, Tanja Lategan captures a moment of quiet renewal, using soft purples to envelop a female figure seated in the gentle cascade of a shower. The figure sits in stillness, eyes closed, breathing deeply as steam rises around her. The water flows over her, symbolizing cleansing and the release of tension, while the muted purples evoke calm and introspection.
Tanja’s delicate mark-making conveys the quiet power of this intimate moment—one where the figure reconnects with herself, grounding her body and mind. Through this artwork, Lategan emphasizes the importance of finding space to breathe deeply and recharge, reminding us that moments of stillness are essential to regaining strength and resilience.
