Found

For years I have felt lost within myself and have searched to try to find a sense of self and define myself in the world. Photography became a way for me to actively seek out the things I longed to know about myself through self portraiture. This body of work titled ‘Found’ deals with themes of identity, place, and belonging centered around my struggles with vulnerability within myself and my relationships to the spaces around me. This series is a continuation of contemplation of the roles I hold and the very thing that holds my identity together, my faith. Found is both a reflection and realization of my need to be lost in order to be found.
