The Weight of Images
Lately I’ve been feeling a certain pressure, a sense of being stuck in what I consider the thing I love most. Photographing. The constant appearance of photographs, content, etc. in my life feels heavy and repetitive, creating an uncertainty in me that I don’t know where it will lead. We are continuously exposed to changing our version of ourselves so as not to fall behind, and this is both highly addictive and dangerous for our mental health as creators, photographers, or artists. The act of going out, walking, traveling, and photographing in a less conscious way is what personally helps remedy this problem that I often struggle with. This is a bit of what I’m feeling right now. Meanwhile, it’s about how I’m feeling. It’s about me being abroad, trying to understand what changes. It’s about constant change. It’s about me, but it could just as well be about you. It’s not just picture after picture.
