Me and Myself
In my artistic practice I have been consistently interested in the destruction and reconstruction of the images. The origin of my series weaving photos was about my personal experience for being suffer from anxiety disorder. The process of repeating the action of weaving is a way to calm myself down. The images that I use for weaving are my self-portraits, to some extent, this is a mean of self-discovery. I need to break down images in shreds first and weave them. I believe to destroy is to create and to rebuild. With this being a concept of my work I have created a series of works revolving around the reconstruction of both the images and myself.
