Self-portraits

EVERY PROJECT HAS A BEGINNING. THIS IS MINE.


I turn to my first self-portrait.

Whenever I need it, I go back to it.

To that 2015 in which I lost so much.

Friend.

Couple.

10 kilos.

Stability.

Balance.

Trust.

Happiness.

Dignity.

Self-esteem.

And self-love.

All my self-respect.


But after bad things come good.

And I became the woman I am today.


I learned.

Damn, everything I learned.

To love me.

Respect me.

To find my inner peace.

Not loving someone who doesn't deserve it.

To get out of my life before returning

to let them destroy me with lies.

Listen to my instinct.

To heal.

Let's continue.

Let's move forward.

To rectify.

To forgive.

To everything before becoming that woman again.

But if I do it again, I already know the way back.

I already know where my home is.

«A self-portrait is a projection of the interior externalized».

Do you know the only thing that never stops changing? Nothing. Everything is in constant motion. We can resist it, but life continues on its path, its change, its process.


Do you know what grief is? It's a psychological process we face after a loss. It's often associated with death, but it can be applied to any loss; whether it's a breakup, an illness, something material to which we were deeply attached, or even a job change. We can even experience micro-griefs daily, like when something doesn't go the way we wanted.


Grief implies a break with what was and is no longer. It marks our personal journey.

Working through my grief through photography has allowed me to free myself and let go of the past, so I can invest my energy in other processes.

I keep creating when I need to.

I continue to experience grief that moves me to create.

CREATIVE PROCESS


The mind can't differentiate between something we're imagining and a situation that's actually happening. It starts sending warning or well-being signals (depending on what we're thinking) so our hormones and emotions trigger us to react.


When I imagine a self-portrait, I project it onto paper. Then I try to create what I felt and imagined with my camera and then with my computer.
So my creativity has led me to step outside my mind and connect with my heart on at least four occasions. My energy completely changes because I'm letting go of whatever is causing me mental fatigue.


I've created a section with some of my before and after photos. There are several hours of work behind each photo.
