• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Elara, a brilliant conceptual artist crippled by agoraphobia, guards her most profound work: The Obsidian Canvas, a forensic codification of her own deepest anxieties. Seeking to transform her suffering into art, she grants her film-director husband, Leo, and her charismatic best friend, Cassian, exclusive access to the Canvas, trusting them to execute her abstract vision. But Leo is desperate for fame, and Cassian is consumed by envy. They violate their pact, secretly filming Cassian performing Elara's most private, recent traumas-stolen via surveillance-as her own "courageous, unscripted reality." As The Elara Project goes viral, critics hail Cassian as the genius, while Leo publicly dismisses his wife as the self-sabotaging "Tragic Muse." Trapped and gaslit, Elara realizes the only way to reclaim her identity is to abandon her sanctuary. Enduring a terrifying journey out of her fortress, she crashes the film's glamorous premiere, confronting the betrayers on stage with a devastating, spontaneous performance that shatters Cassian's lie and exposes Leo's malice. Elara wins her freedom and her legal battles, but the public remains divided. In the end, Elara retreats not to fear, but to a powerful new artistic quiet, having discovered that her truest art is the unmarketable, unstealable act of The Self Undefined.
