As a result of a spinal fracture, my body was broke, in its center of gravity into two equal parts. The duality presented in that physical condition was a reflection of my emotional and mental state.
My work explores this duality: the disconnection of the body and the self. The sensation one experience as if we were mere spectators of our own lives. The photograph is proof of an intimate performance that was done as a cathartic way of letting sentiments flow.
