IDENTITY

This series represents a poetic exploration of our journey to understanding our true and profound identity by looking closer to ourselves.

The series commences with a peephole, a physical barrier that delineates the exterior - the public space governed by societal norms - from the interior - the intimate space where masks are shed and self-reflection occurs with greater care and depth.

In "Identity," the act of looking closer initiates a process of self-discovery. Eyes confront themselves in the mirror, examining from the depths of shadow. Fleeting and imprecise gazes seek to decipher the soul beyond mere appearances. Thus, the self-portraits undertake the task of self-awareness, questioning our place in the world.
