See Me (Single)
DESCRIPTION
A boy with vitiligo who has, his whole life, been told to cover up the clouds on his face with make-up, finally decided to take of his mask and show me his real face. Which was absolutely beautiful.
AUTHOR
I am interested in all human beings and societies. I am compelled by the different cultures, values, religions, and emotions behind actions. My special interest lies in the portrayal of deformation and imperfection in every way, so as to empathize the beauty of living creatures.
I am a 22-year-old creative with a passion for photography from Amsterdam. Doing what I love has always been my priority. Growing up, I spent my free time writing poems and drawing portraits. In my teens I committed myself to dancing and performing arts and was able to experience a different side of artistry. After I was forced to give up dancing, I decided to use my artisticity for a different purpose; to create honest, inspiring, and provocative concepts and images, and bring them to life with my camera as my tool.
Essentially, I strive to redefine what beauty really is. Beauty to me is dark, honest, crooked, naked, tough, real and everything that makes us who we are. Beauty to me is everything but society’s standards.
