Description
I consider this photo a surrealist self-portrait inspired by my faith journey. My faith journey involved a lot of suffering (the purple), doubt (looking back), and ultimately healing. The photo is comprised of five separate images. There are three long exposure photos layered to emphasize movement, the Cross, and a picture of myself from a time I struggled with faith but soon realized my love for God.
At the time, I struggled with emptiness. Though I had just been accepted to my dream film school, had many friends, and lived in my dream city, I was empty. The most significant part of my faith story came at this time: I went to an empty church to pray and cry for hours and felt a warm embrace around me. That was the moment I knew that I had returned home to my Father, and there was no reason to doubt anymore.
