The Wall

I had a wall around me and my mind that wasn't letting me be creative or even move. I felt trapped. There was much thought about how to tackle the wall, to chip it away bit by bit. I couldn't go through or over or around the wall. I was encased, blank and empty. I did not know how to start and looking back at my own work, I always turn my feelings into images even if those feelings are not shown. With the wall, I was not motivated and felt empty.

This is my wall, the way it's tall, ordered and structured in building form. Crowding over you, looking up to escape to something good.

This is how I displayed the photographs in an exhibition. I placed each 8x6 image on a board to display “Wall”. I did this so the viewer would feel the overwhelming feeling of being trapped.
