A visual diary composed of body fragments and words, to create a poetic tension that reflects my emotional landscape at the end of a long-term relationship. This work captures the introspective space where, caught between chasms and peaks, I find myself fragile. The use of analogue film emphasises the significance of time, memory and absence, while handwritten thoughts, songs, and poems overlay the images to articulate the emotions of separation, fear of loss, grief and transformation. As Jeanette Winterson so poignantly asks, 'Why is the measure of love loss?'
I am a self-taught photographer. After graduating in Foreign languages I moved to France where I lived for 6 years, between Paris and Nice. My relationship with photography started when I discovered Edward Weston, Lucien Clergue, Mimmo Jodice, Imogen Cunningham and many other masters whose works had a strong influence on my vision. Much of my work focuses on the language of nature and on my relationship with urban space. Shadows and lights are a means to shape my reality: photography is an inner journey, dealing with emotions where outer space gives voice to my inner 'gaze'.
