Visions of Self 2023

Not Broken

Vision Statement

One of the greatest advantages of being an artist is that you need to take an honest look at who you are. One of my life struggles has been body image. Researching weight stigma helped me understand this aspect of myself and gave me the courage to see me as the beautiful shapes I find in my other artistic subjects. This image came out of the photo shoot I did of myself and the idea that I don't want people to look at me an see someone who is "other" or "wrong".
