Self portraits 

My self-portrait work is more than capturing an image its a journey of self discovery and creative expression each portrait an opportunity to explore my emotions and inner thoughts.

 

I began taking self portraits 10 years ago little did I know then the impact this journey into self portraiture would have on me, my relationship with my body healing from DV and my mental health.

" Art heals by accepting the pain and doing something with it "

- Shaun Mcniff

I am passionate about self-discovery through self-portraiture it allows me to be my most vulnerable and authentic self and fully present.

The process for me taking self-portraits is more about the inner experience, than what the final image looks like, every image a reflection of my personal evolution, a visual diary, my story.

I strongly believe art is powerful sometimes we don't have the words only expression, art allows us to connect to ourselves in such a profound way.
