This project was created early 2020 right before the COVID-19 pandemic hit my Texas hometown. Personally, I was learning to live with very drastic changes to my body and the pandemic heightened my pain drastically. Coping with the changes emotional and physical changes, getting laid of work, living each day with the fear of catching a second additional virus; these were all things that accumulated and made me really doubt my existence and my faith in a God.
Artists like Edvard Munch, Van Gogh, Robert Mapplethorpe among many more became heavy inspirations for me. I used dramatic chiaroscuro lighting to capture this enigmatic images of my being. The subject is my body and my soul.
