The peacock is not subtle, but it is precise.

Its exhibition is neither accidental nor excessive, it is calibrated. What appears ornamental is, in fact, deliberate structure: symmetry, timing, and command of attention.

The Display Project examines visibility as a form of power. These photographs are not about beauty for its own sake, but about the discipline required to hold gaze without collapse into spectacle. The peacock does not move often; it waits, then reveals. Display is an action, not a state.

Unlike animals whose authority lies in concealment or speed, the peacock asserts itself through presence alone. Its strength is not in pursuit or domination, but in control of perception, knowing when to be seen, how fully, and at what cost.

Here, elegance is not modesty. It is confidence governed by order.
