This self-portrait is part of a project focused on the transformation of oneself, against the prejudices of the general society towards freedom of expression and to be who one really is without hiding before anything.

My name is Jaqueline Vanek (Austria, 1984) and I am an award-winning Fine Art Photographer, Portraitist, Visual Artist & Senior Visual UX/UI Designer, currently living in Madrid, Spain. In my personal work I use the instruments of darkness, surrealism and photography to talk about my deepest feelings; emotions, states of mind, mind shifts and more. I started my photographic artist journey back in 2005, after my studies in Fine Arts, Casting and Moulding; and my career in the world of design in the year 2011, specializing in visual web design.
