In the Room I_StrangeTalesGirls

Teenage girls are sensitive, rebellious, and easily hurt. They often carry within them a fragile sensitivity and the courage to love and hate. Against this backdrop, they navigate the complexities of adolescence.

This series of works is a project I started shooting with a Hasselblad camera in 2015.

During adolescence, they experience a period of contradictions and energy. They perceive the world's depth in their sensitivity and seek self-discovery in their rebelliousness. Like buds yet to bloom, they hold a vulnerability that is both delicate and resilient, displaying the determination to love and hate bravely.

In this phase, they learn to face challenges and bravely explore their identities. Behind every smile, there might be a wounded heart. Their gaze is profound and distant, as if searching for the meaning of life. Deep within them lies an inexplicable force propelling them toward maturity, guiding them to find their rightful place in the world.

This unique period of adolescence is a stage of courage and emotional tumult. They might get hurt, yet they understand the healing power within wounds. They confront the complexities of their inner world, unafraid of both love and hatred. With steadfast strides, they embark on the journey of life. In this youthful chapter, they craft their own stories of growth in a distinctive way.
