In order to explore and better understand the dynamic that is created between individuals in complex and layered relationships, of any kind, I began photographing the ones who were closest to me. As I began dissecting my own relationship with my mother and grandmother, a catalyst began to occur and I found myself questioning if, I too, was capable of possessing the qualities I have always admired of the women who preceded me. In making these images, I am focusing on examining matriarchal figures in my life, which has left me realizing that there is so much more to my identity than I am aware of. By allowing the experiences of my reality to dictate my perspective, I have found myself immersed in an ongoing journey of self-exploration, highlighting themes of femininity, intimacy, objectification, and sexuality.
