How does one discover more about oneself? For me, art has always been the answer. 

For a long time, I struggled with one question – why did I feel the need to destroy the feminine within myself? It was never about the rejection of femininity in the world, but about fighting it within me. I believed it made me weak, something that I needed to suppress. But the struggle became so intense that I didn’t even know who I was anymore. 

The feminine did not remain quiet – it fought back, attacking my masculine side. The war inside me left me forlorn, unable to recognize either side of myself. I thought I had to win, but I realized that the way out was not in victory or defeat – it was in understanding. 

I am both. 

This exhibition is a reflection of that journey. Every photograph is a selfportrait – a visual representation of that internal struggle and of the moment of acceptance. 

On a larger scale, this struggle mirrors what society often imposes. Toxic masculinity exists because we are taught to suffocate our feminine side. We are raised to reject softness, emotions, and vulnerability. But strength is not about picking sides – it’s about embracing the balance we all carry within us.
