My work seeks a different perspective than my own. I am driven by the place I live in, and all that occurs around me. Before I start creating, I pause and look around, observing and wondering, which leads me to explore the world more deeply. Trauma fascinates me; it creates a dialogue between life and death, arranges the chaos and disrupts the order, shifts the gaze to the past, and examines the encounter between what is here and what is absent. I use my personal story to shed light on the collective notion of trauma and bring the two aspects together. I use photography as a medium. I’m curious about how reality allows photography to capture its hidden truths, even though photography is usually ore-planned and self-aware.
