Despite being standalone images, captured without belonging to a greater body of work, every single one of these photographs carries the same sense of nostalgia, relief and catharsis. In life one truly has no other option than to accept the pain of their past and continue growing. And as I grew as a person, so did my photography collection - showcasing all the life lessons that I have learned over the last couple of years. My adolescence may be ending, but my desire to create is stronger than ever, powered by the knowledge of my past.
