‘Let’s Do The Rainbow’ project statement
Let’s Do The Rainbow is a body of work exploring the beauty and celebration of individuality. By creating a mix of relaxed and posed portraits I aimed to capture parts of individuals’ personalities and create a safe space for them to express themselves. Self- comparison is so prominent in our society, always aiming to be something different, to present a particular outside view to those around us. But what if we took more moments to appreciate the pure joyful experience of existence without stress and expectations on ourselves to change?
To me, difference is wonderful, and helps the world grow.
