A Twisted Story

Self-initiated project

My aim was to draw a parallel between language and the complexity of our body and soul. Our inner essence is reflected in the main tool of language, letters, which we use daily to express ourselves. How are these letters reshaping themselves depending on their environment? Events occur and distort our environment, yet we remain present in an act of resilience. We metamorphose ourselves, carve our bodies into new entities, unknown to one’s mind but relentlessly necessary to the river’s oxygen.

This a visual story about twisted elements, intricate ways in which we nurture to protect ourselves from the storm.

We are nothing but shapes.

It is an attempt to visualise the shapes of our souls.
