One’s identity is multifaceted and complicated. Everyone has multiple layers that come together to create who they are. I stand at the intersection of many identities and by using an extended shutter speed, I allowed for these parts of myself to be represented by the camera. While I am an accumulation of all of the stories I’ve heard and people I’ve met, I will always stand as me, one of a kind.
Describe your photo so we can provide alt-text for future visitors to this website. Example: "Two women holding hands and smiling as they walk in a pride parade, surrounded by rainbow flags and a vibrant crowd celebrating LGBTQ+ pride."
A young lesbian is depicted within a silver elevator. One can see her body upright within the elevator, blurring into an image of her leaning onto the wall.
