The Procession of Spectres

The Procession of Spectres engages with vast landscapes to
examine the fragmentary nature of the human condition and the
emergence of self.

This body of work represents a step from behind the veil of ideas
and techniques to find earnest revelations of my struggle to be
whole with my fragmented sense of self. It is a reach for
connectivity with others and a reconciliation with the stabbing
isolation, which is necessary for creating work where one is
exposing their inscape* and physical form to as little interference
as possible.

The images are from a period where I experienced an awakening
from a psychological disappearance — a loss of personality and its
driving forces — an eclipse of individuality.
