Self-expression is something that encourages me as an artist. For me, photography is a gateway to portray and give alternative examples of beauty—capturing something eye-catching that you would usually pass by with no second thought. I love photographing city life, including street art. This interest is influenced by seeing my uncle and cousin make graffiti. I will continue to use photography as a platform to show my perspective on the beauty of my surroundings and to express myself to the fullest.
