Beachland

Beachland is a space that I escaped into when I was struck with depression in 2013. Even though I failed to see beauty and colour in real life, I still could still find it in my photographs. I remember at the time, I tried to capture the feeling of the ocean, but it was much later that realized that I was creating safe places for myself within my photographs. Safe places that I could escape to, even though it was only in my mind. Beachland is also part of a larger body I’m working on about spaces that present differently in photographs than what one sees with the naked eye.
