"These are experiences. Too painful for words.Events that still have an open wound. That will not heal. Letters that should have melted together to give each other meaning. Instead, they are being pushed down to the ground. Beaten, kicked, until they can’t hold on to each other anymore.In silence, they let the other go. Terrified, they all stand in a line. Like small tin soldiers."
ABOUT THE PROJECT
This series began as a way for me to bid farewell to the sister I never had. I had grown weary of dealing with others, and it felt natural to turn the camera on myself. I yearned to become a complete person instead of just half. The quiet voice within me marked a journey of mourning and healing, ultimately resembling a rebirth. I aspired to chronicle my transformation as I lived through it.
In 'Longing' and 'Silent Voice,' I aimed to convey a tranquil and introspective quality. This was an intensely personal narrative, one in which I bared my emotions and vulnerability. To tackle these themes, I needed to be exceptionally patient and self-compassionate, carefully articulating my feelings.
