Private Project

Air Walk

I used a 360 camera to capture nature and art; the joys of my life. The nature at the beginning is the birth of life. The transition to the colorful city highlights the innocence of adolescence. Finally, in death, we return back to the silence of nature. The 360 view captures more than just our narrow first person perspective which led to the title Air Walk. This is the view we have as spirits after we leave our bodies. I am the air that can fly in the sky and freely go anywhere I please. I am the air; surrounded by air.

“I’m a flower and like all women am a part of mother nature.We have the power to heal everything in society. We can make the world a better place with our love and care.” -Blond Jenny

Nature Reimagined
Lately, I’ve rotated my work between social activism on one side and capturing my feelings in nature on the other. This provides a balance for me that sometimes releases tension and other times brings me peace and tranquility. In this nature work, I want to express my womanhood. This is my self-portrait. Nature unreleased my honesty and through it I found my existence. I collected these flowers and leaves, dried them, then used them to illustrate my story. This process brings me closer to nature which is a source of joy and satisfaction for me.
