In my project "How Things Are," I strive to elevate and highlight these moments, creating short stories that capture the intersection between my fears and anxieties and the physical objects in my home. The resulting images exist between the real and surreal, blurring the line between staged and observational photography. By juxtaposing manipulated and found images, each scenario becomes plausible and questionable, creating a space where feelings of agitation and liberation coexist.

Through this work, I aim to provoke the viewer to question whether these images represent rebellion or despair, challenging the boundaries of perception and interpretation. Ultimately, my home becomes a tool for exploring the complexities of the human experience, as we navigate the intersections between our inner and outer worlds.
