In my work, I immerse myself in the process of recognizing and understanding myself. Questions such as: What is “I”? What and why do I want? To what extent is “I” this “I”, and not just another learned mask or model of behavior? are defining for me.
In today's time, a person dominates the narrative that a person can be whoever he wants. The choice is so great that often a person either chooses erroneously or does not dare to make a choice at all. Space generates pseudo-personalities, pseudo-uniqueness, pseudo-sexuality, pseudo-independence.
A trend has developed in which the image masks and manipulates, hiding from the model and from the viewer her own natural vulnerability and fragility. This trend not only distorts the personality, but in fact creates a dummy, volumetric emptiness and obsessively demonstrates it.
As a result, it becomes more and more difficult for a person to understand his real needs and he moves further and further away from himself.
There is a direct relationship between pseudo choice and anxiety, between pseudo uniqueness and alienation.
In my work, I depersonalize pseudo-uniqueness and invite the viewer to try to feel the vulnerability and fragility of their own body. And as a result, it is possible to better understand your own needs.
