This image is a part of a long term ongoing project
The great need to create the images in this project characterized, to a great extent, my realization of wide ranging changes that had awakened my own personal awareness.
I decided to express in this project my view of humans and their desires, the glass walls that we erect in our way, when we are prevented from achieving our dreams and ambitions.
Compromising on the mediocre, the norm, the ordinary instead of setting ourselves goals that we perceive as daydreams, with only a rare chance of fulfillment.
Relinquishing before it is too late future aims and dreams, whether in the fields of relationships, career, or actually any aspect of life, on the simple basis that there are few chances that we will achieve them.
All this led me to understand the many barriers that we set ourselves, and as such, we are the only ones, and in truth, the first, to sabotage our happiness.
Whilst carrying out this work, I learned to understand that we only tie ourselves to our comfort areas, but to a great extent, we have also tied ourselves up with ropes and barriers, without which the reality of loss of control becomes a bottomless pit.
I decided to describe the many situations of dealing with barriers using different types of ropes in a series of self-portraits. Using studio lighting and black and white photography allows me to create a greater emphasis on the situation taking place, and to turn our attention to the tension and lack thereof between the body and rope, twisting forms and the tightening and release of the ropes.
