I Am The Sky
This photographic series emanated from my quest to understand emotions. My childhood culture forbade expressing emotions, so I assumed they were like forbidden fruit — scary & concealed.
I needed the lens of art to chronicle their entire spectrum and found a parallel with clouds. Like clouds, emotions are transient and ever shifting.
Sometimes, emotions are like dark, angry storm clouds, while other times they are cotton-clouds of joy. In the end, they are impermanent — just like all of life’s events.
But I am the sky.
I am the expanse through which all of life’s experiences are passing through.
“You are the sky. The clouds are what happens, what comes and goes.”
