Self:

The concept of the inner self is referred to as being the true version of an individual. Self explores that notion of the inner self which we often hide from the world for a variety of factors such as fear of judgment or the inability to connect with others. Hiding these emotions can cause turmoil and inner strife that is manifested in many ways. This project uses long exposure to capture abstracted portraiture which illustrates these emotions breaking through the surface to reveal the complexity and rich passions that aren’t often expressed to the world.
