[CREDITS]

An exploration of personal expression and identity through experiences of alienation in modern cities. Built around shared feelings of social imprisonment caused by contemporary homogenisation and de-humanisation of lived realities in a capitalistic environment. Developed looks to reflect themes of reappropriation and negotiation of self-expression under oppressive power structures.

Taking inspiration from personal experiences of self-reflection through one’s own eyes as well as external perceptions, the story behind this shoot uncovers feelings of judgement, frustration, and performativity. Giving a voice to common sentiments, the formation of individuality within a complex societal environment manifests without reprisal.
