Overview
During my attempt to capture the inner consciousness of a drug user, I have come to see two different selves coexisting within me. Between using and not using drugs, between being unmarried and becoming a mother by accident, I let these selves develop and exist as manifestations of my emotions. Transforming the images taken under the emotional influence brought on by each self, Ipresent them as both static, documented moments and as a testament to the continuity and fluidity of time and its influence.
