In the Ink: A Study in Self

“In the Ink: A Study in Self” is a photographic exploration of emotional turmoil, dissociation, and resilience. Through black and white self-portraits and abstract inkblots, the artist reflects on a period of personal struggle. The series merges the clinical with the personal, using inkblots - traditionally a tool for examining the unconscious - alongside intimate portraits to capture internal battles and the tension between somatic preoccupation and emotional control.

The work invites viewers to reflect on their own psychological landscapes, highlighting the fragile balance between strength and vulnerability. By exposing these complexities, In the Ink encourages contemplation of the invisible struggles we all face, and the delicate process of transformation and self-discovery.
