The connection between us
“Intimacy has been a difficult area in my personal relationships. For years, I have struggled with body dysmorphia and how I look which has made it difficult to connect with people physically. This project delves into how I am becoming more comfortable in my skin with the help of my girlfriend, who has understood my struggles and has gradually encouraged a more positive relationship between me and my body. The photographs aim to capture delicate moments of closeness between two people that trust each other. Our growth has given us the courage to display such parts of our bodies that we were never comfortable with before. The project represents the healing nature of genuine connection and the impact it has on our sense of self.”
