I am a multidisciplinary artist primarily working with media, video, and photography. My work deals with the subject of family. My journey and family, especially my sisters, are the most precious people in my life — our journey without a father figure that we missed and still miss. I feel abandoned and isolated in my family. My photographs reflect and describe the family situation after my parents' divorce. Some of the pictures are portraits of my brother. Perhaps I unconsciously looked for the man figure and found it in my brother because he is also the only man in the family.
