'I AM NOT ALONE' is a body of work that explores togetherness; the relationships we allow in our lives that make life bearable (if not pleasant) across different countries and varied culture.

Life was not given to be spent in isolation, there's the family we are born into and the mandatory relationships that provides, there's the chosen family filled with people we specifically choose to be ours, there's forbidden love and love that's allowed, colleagues, playmates and all the dynamics of relationships in-between. People we spend mundane daily moments with

In all my travels, I seek people in pairs or groups and I get to know who they are to each other and what that relationship means in the grand scheme of their lives
