Gaze of Resistance / Olhar de Resistência

by Michel Soares

Gaze of Resistance is a Fine Art black and white photograph captured in Bahia, Brazil. The image focuses on a single eye framed by braided hair, symbolizing resilience, ancestry, and Afro-Brazilian identity. The intense gaze does not hide — it confronts, embodying the spirit of cultural resistance and the living memory of the African diaspora. Olhar de Resistência é uma fotografia Fine Art em preto e branco realizada na Bahia, Brasil. A imagem foca em um único olho emoldurado por tranças, simbolizando resiliência, ancestralidade e identidade afro-brasileira. O olhar intenso não se esconde — confronta, encarnando o espírito da resistência cultural e a memória viva da diáspora africana.
