Silence is Sexy

‘Silence is Sexy’ is an erratic diary on detachment and desire, mapping my own passage through late adolescence to womanhood. Friends; lovers; strangers; figures: these make up the subjects of my research, as they weave their journeys, transitioning from one state to the next, exploring the ambivalence of human desire and experiencing the conflict between ego and reality.

The series put together images from the 15 journals I kept since 2015 till today. I seek to push the documentary approach by combining photography, drawings, texts and other memorabilia to constantly question my self, my surroundings and my most intimate relationships.

With the help of the PH Museum Women Grant I aim to see how 'Silence is Sexy' can evolve towards a finalisation as a book and an exhibition. The grant would support me financially while I focus on completing and enriching the project.
