ENTRY DESCRIPTION
'The Realisation' is from my last photo-project from 2022. I created this photo right before I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. MS highly impaired my vision, so I was forced to quit photography and started exploring different artistic mediums.
This photo, or project was a first step into a, for me, new terrain of photography. Traditional photography didn't feel 'enough' anymore. After years and countless photos of visualising my inner self and the way I experience the world around me I reached a point of clarity. Clarity of how strange and lonely existing is. And for this I needed new ways of expression, so I immersed myself in photo manipulation.
As I said shortly after I broke down and received my MS diagnosis (and yes, this drastic change in my photo-practice absolutely foreshadowed this illness), so 'The Realisation' is my so far only finished photo of this kind, but I'm finally feeling better and my vision is mostly back, so I'm planning on going back to photography soon and continue with this series.
This series' title is "Entfremdung" (eng: alienation) and deals with the many ways one can feel strange, alone and isolated from oneself, family, friends, culture, society.

AUTHOR
Adam's Lilith, solely known by her artist pseudonym and born in Germany in 1997, is an artist known for her diverse creative pursuits. With academic backgrounds in art history and cultural anthropology, Lilith has been immersed in the world of art since childhood, particularly drawn to photography from a young age.

Establishing her own photo atelier in 2020, she gained recognition as a published and self-taught photo artist. With her artistic focus on exploring the depths of her mind, Lilith used her camera to capture the dimensions and repercussions of traumatic events on the psyche. Interpersonal connections also emerged as a recurring theme in her photography, reflecting the importance of human relationships in her artistic exploration.

In 2022, Lilith's artistic journey took a new direction following a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), which necessitated a shift in her medium due to vision impairment. Embracing watercolor as a new form of expression, she embarked on 'A Thousand Faces,' a series exploring the nuances of living with MS.
Lilith's work reflects her personal experiences, resilience, and introspection, offering viewers a window into the complexities of the human condition through her art.
