SKIA is a representation of personal disorder—both mental and emotional. In the silent world of thoughts and feelings, disorder unfolds like an invisible dance. These images are an exploration of the complex and tumultuous landscape of humano emotion.
Created by directly scanning the face pressed against the surface of a printer scanner, the self-portraits capture an intense physical and emotional closeness. The natural distortions produced through this process become visual metaphors for inner chaos and vulnerability.
Disorder is not only found on the surface. The struggle with chaotic thoughts and the invisible threads that weave into a labyrinth of unanswered questions are part of everyday life. The long shadows of the past contribute to the complexity and confusion of the subconscious.
These images do not seek to judge or define—they offer a space where viewers can recognize their own inner disorder. SKIA is a series of self-portraits created in a vulnerable moment, inviting the audience to connect with their own internal chaos, discovering beauty in imperfection and meaning in disorder.
Mental disorder becomes not just the subject of the photograph, but also the means through which we try to understand ourselves—and one another.
