Emphasizing the fundamental yet often overlooked principle that loving oneself is a prerequisite to loving another, Timofeeva's piece is a poignant reminder of self-acceptance and the beauty of individuality. By selecting elements of her own visage that she associates most closely with love, the artist invites viewers into a reflective journey of recognizing and celebrating the parts of themselves that resonate with the essence of love. Through Shape Of My Pomelo, Timofeeva crafts a visual narrative that is both universal in its message and intimate in its portrayal, encouraging a rediscovery of self-love's elemental role in our lives.
