Fine Art nominee

During a photography convention, I was asked to answer a simple question; “Who are you”? this was hard, even painful. It required to dig deep, and finding that channel of communication with myself through layers of self doubt, pretense, denial and hypocrisy. I ended up creating a self portrait. And it’s one of my favorite images I’ve ever created. Because it’s me.

I create digital composites that embody two traits I have: I’m a pragmatist and a dreamer. I’m fascinated by forces of nature and the human body. I have an urge to understand how life and nature works; that same urge pushed me to complete a M.Sc degree in Chemistry. I’m moved by observing natural phenomena and human interactions. I tend to create imagery with a “darker feel” to shed light on mysteries that are unknown to us; the connection of human emotion to natural process. I also tend to play with elements of sexuality and perceived taboos.
