I AM MY MUSE

2018- Present

I am my Muse is a series of self-portraits and environmental portraits that depict my internal struggle of wanting to be loved and feeling damaged, mixed with my confusion between lust and love. I only seek men who were cruel and emotionally unavailable. Now as a young woman, I struggle to understand what a healthy relationship with healthy boundaries appears. I have been so scared in the past, that I view every man as an evil creature, whose goal is to hurt me. I use my body as a sensual tool to keep men physically interested in me because I am scared of emotional connection.
