untitled feelings 2023

This work explores a distorted self-image, akin to dysmorphia, that challenges the reality of my feelings. I contrasted two pictures: the first is of me at around five or six years old, and the second is a recent one. Both images have undergone a form of distortion, reflecting not only the warped perception of my physical self but also the fragmented and unclear nature of my emotional identity. Just as the images are altered and obscured, so too are the feelings tied to my sense of self—disjointed, uncertain, and ever-shifting. This distortion captures the complex relationship between memory, trauma, and identity, illustrating how the way we see ourselves can be as fractured and elusive as the images we hold onto.
