This body of self-portraiture marks a profound shift in dialogue—both with the camera and with the self—following intensive periods of darker artistic exploration.

The collection is a quiet moment of release and acceptance, documenting the internal shift as the sense of comfort in front of the lens began to soften. Primarily rendered in black and white, some of the images carry a gentle sepia warmth that reflects this emotional change. The photographs capture quiet moments of self-acceptance—a soft arm resting, a steady, peaceful pause—ultimately becoming a love letter to the self and to everything previously experienced. This work is a final statement of letting go, finding beauty in softness, and embracing an identity free from external expectations.
