We All Wear A Mask

We judge quickly, seeing, hearing, but rarely understanding. This series explores how easily we decide who someone is before truly knowing them. We notice expression, tone, appearance, yet seldom pause to look deeper.

Born in 2004, these works grew from moments of self-doubt and the desire to hide from judgment. By removing sight and sound, I magnified what’s often overlooked, touch, emotion, and presence. Allowing to be in the moment, accepting others for who they are, and accepting myself. It removes the power others may have over us and puts us in control to uncover what lies beneath: our shared humanity, vulnerability, and the quiet beauty of empathy and connection.
