Half-Light is the reflection of
a journey born of pain and illness — a path that began when endometriosis, that
hidden and painful disorder of the reproductive system, took hold in my body
and eventually unfolded into cancer and a radical hysterectomy.
To endure pain was,
in itself, a life-changing experience; to live with the growth of something
within me that was neither a child nor could it ever become one.
The photographs in
this series emerge from my attempts at acceptance — a threshold where shadows
and light, thoughts and emotions, weave into one another. Darkness and light,
like two languages, gave voice to this journey. Solitude and silence, my
companions through these years, seep into the unseen layers of the images.
This work speaks of
death, yet it is equally a testament to life — to the endless cycle of sorrow
and joy, uncertainty and clarity, and the profound dualities that bind all
living beings.
