I have always been interested in trying to identify an expression that suggests both longing and loss. My work has gone through various stages of subject matter: from images of adulthood to images of undefined adolescence.† I'm interested in the adolescent expression of fragile, vulnerability, and their somehow knowing and questioning gaze.
