Self-portraits
This is a series of self-portraits taken with b&w film under various studio and nature settings. As I believe that there is great aesthetic nuance and depth in sorrows which cannot be put into words, I attempt to describe them through creating dream-like and poetic imagery. And through mixing images that gracefully present the body with images that have more traumatic narratives, I build a safe haven where the viewers can face such dark ecstasy and address these unspoken feelings, in this way taking a step back momentarily and realize the beauty in life’s uncanniness.
