I Can’t Paint, So What?

I never got into photography to recreate reality. I wanted to create my own colourful, surreal little world. And since I can’t draw or paint, photography became my way of doing exactly that.

After getting lost in digital perfection and polished fashion imagery, this series became my way of rediscovering the joy of experimentation. Through analogue in-camera multiple exposures and chemically altered negatives, I gave myself permission to play again.

Because honestly, who cares if it doesn’t look like photography anymore?
