I'm Not Telling You a Story; I Am Showing You Who I Am, 2021

I'm Not Telling You a Story; I Am Showing You Who I Am is my cameraless photographic series that uncovers images and emotions outside of my awareness, revealing what would otherwise stay hidden.

Born out of a desire to examine the sources of creativity living in the human psyche, this body of work is an intimate reflection of unlocking and stimulating the communication between the conscious and subconscious mind. Influenced by Carl Jung's Red Book and the maxim "value your inner life," I surrender and allow visual forms to emerge without attaching them to a constrictive narrative. I do not apply parameters or force cohesion. Instead, I empower every feeling to take shape freely with urgency and sincerity. Meant to be experienced rather than completely understood; these photographs are a direct, unfiltered manifestation of what I am confronting.

However fearful and uncomfortable, I am daring into the unknown, where my inner images await me. Embedding truth into each artwork, I am delivering authentic moments. I am showing you who I am.
