Green and Cyan Series
We may not find out that we are able to look within for many years growing up, but it is empathy that awakens this feeling and lesson in life. If you can reach out and have empathy, you have learned how to love. This project expounds on the idea of being close to the spiritual lesson of love and empathy. The empathetic and emotional response when we see things up close is much stronger than when we see things far away.
As body language, we all want to get closer to discover, to abstract, to become personalized with our subject. The initial response of creating a closeness to something to better understand its elements is a part of the close-ups I have selected from my library. They are my language to myself and to the world declaring that this is what I have discovered, this is what I am close to.

Project II: Water Project
Question: “Are you still working with empathy?”
“No, not empathy. But the action of selflessness is like ripples in the water. We all affect our lives and each other with the ripples and disruption of the water's surface with our actions. Specifically, I want to work with selflessness, because of the positive ripples that are made.” (module 12)
