Abstract: Honorable Mention 2022 (professional)
ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Metamorphose is a series of a larger project, Fragment. I decided to work on the difficulty of being oneself in a world where we are all educated to be something special, to do something special. The difficulty of being oneself, of doing what we like is the theme of his eight photographs. It is an awareness, painful, progressive, to offer oneself to others afterwards. Devout who we are. This is the most difficult, knowing and assuming it in the eyes of all.
This image is for me the most representative of my project, the difficulty of being, of rising to be, simply.
