This ongoing series of self-portraits is about self-acceptance and self-love. These pictures are therapeutic to me. They are a way to finally take that road of embracing myself to the fullest. Physically and emotionally. A way to embrace my feminity and sensuality, my moods and feelings, after having rejected them for too long. After having felt disgust and sometimes, shame. The introvert, ex-sickly shy, socially-awkward nightbird that I am is particularly inspired by the dark... My thoughts are clearer at night. Photography is a tool to finally express myself freely.
