One fears of facing the endless nothingness. One fears of being alive, of dealing with stacking reality. Being surrounded by the unknown and uncontrollable incites fear, loneliness, anxiety, and confusion.

 

By combining landscape and self-portrait photography, my aim is to explore the confusion and anxiety of the future, our coexistence with emotions, and the tantalizing awareness of existence. My pictures evoke persons subdued in deep thoughts, somewhere between the past and the future, existence and disappearance, life and death.
