Self-Portraits

This series portrays my first true self portraits, where my sole focus was to explore photographing myself.

My intention for this project was to dive into a state discomfort-releasing the power of the photographer, the power to perceive, and surrendering control to the camera. It was an exercise in pure exploration: placing myself in front of the lens with no expectations, just to see what would unfold. To my surprise, the process turned out to be unexpectedly peaceful and intimate. It was just me, my camera, and the sound of the shutter piercing my bedroom air.

The uncomfortable became comfortable.
