Each photograph is composed to evoke reflection and dialogue on topics such as claustrophobia, sex, cigarette use, global warming, gun violence, the pressure to abstain from alcohol, eating nutritious food, and avoiding sugar. By transforming everyday objects into powerful symbols, these images challenge viewers to confront the underlying themes that shape our experiences and decisions around us in daily life.
Through meticulous arrangement of chosen objects, I aim to create a visual narrative in these images that speaks to our shared struggles and societal pressures. Each still life serves as a poignant commentary on the tensions between personal choice and external influence, encouraging viewers to consider their own relationships with these pervasive issues.
