The feeling of saying yes to yourself, that feeling of self-trust, can be uncommon.
These moments of self-trust can take many forms. Such as choosing a new habit. A surge of self-assurance. Gaining the confidence to trust a decision. Recognizing more options are available. Or maybe, asserting a boundary.
My use of photo manipulation and black-out poetry plays with the fleeting yet lucid nature of these ah-ha moments.
As a medium, photography is the art of painting with light. I enjoy finding ways to display light’s sheer and ever-in-motion qualities.
As a conceptual artist, throughout all phases of life, art has been a companion in making sense of the world.
This body of work is an intimate look into exploring my difficulties and evolution with my own self-trust.
