Thank you Arrayah ❤️

Thank you Lisa x

I carry the weight of childhood scars
Silent echoes of a past long buried
Where words were never spoken
And the wounds, unseen, quietly festered
Over the years, the silence has grown heavy
But now, in whispers, I slowly reveal the truths once locked within
To heal, to forgive, and free my soul

Going right back to show you some of my first photographic experiments.
This is part of my series ‘Distress’

"The images, made in South Florida’s barrier islands, represent a mysterious search for origins."

All sorts: temperature, liquids, friction

These are wet collodion self-portraits. In them, I push my body to its limits, deliberately subluxing or dislocating my joints to create these monstrous images.

Not an emulsion lift. I disrupt the chemistry inside the Polaroid as soon as it’s come out of the camera whilst it’s developing. I use lots of different techniques 😊
