The major concept behind this piece and the rest for its series is to illustrate the idea of people finding their own truth within themselves. I utilize the passion in sex because I feel it is one of the few moments in every person’s lives where we allow ourselves to let the world around us disappear and we amalgamate with the person in our embrace to become something more akin to our true selves… even for just a moment.

Finding moments to be truly honest with ourselves is quite important. Many people spend so much of their lives pretending to be happy and conforming with what is considered the “norm”. It hurts me to see so many people close to me doing so much to avoid showing who they truly are by lying about their happiness.

I photograph couples while the I are in embrace and combine many different positions to merge them into one figure. I do this to symbolize the freedom of movement as well as to express the idea of allowing yourself to become more than you think you must be.
