Diana Rubi
Cycles (Series)
DESCRIPTION
"Discovering myself will be an inner journey that spans several cycles of my life because blooming is not a destination, but rather a path."
"Cycles" comprises a series of self-portraits that allude to the four stages of human life through floral cycles as a visual metaphor.
Through a symbolic garden, the series illustrates how the circular shapes of flowers mirror the cyclical movements of life. Each life stage is depicted through a photograph, inviting viewers to reflect on their own journey of personal growth and blooming.
The series serves as a testament to the beauty and transience of life, as well as the patient growth process that leads to blooming. By delving into themes such as identity, consciousness, and femininity, it challenges viewers to introspect and discover their own purpose, their own peak of cycles, and their own inner resilience that propels them to comprehend their existence.
