Gallery 12 – Feels Like I Don’t Belong

For me, I have always felt alone in this world, regardless of who I am with or in what situtation I am in. Even when I was in a relationship with someone I loved, there was always that sense of being unattached and the eventuality that things will come to an end. Change. I felt something that this was somehow the message that was being conveyed in these solemn images of a Way Leo as he posed for the camera, asking him to occupy the space in whatever way he felt. I have done this before with Kwunho, one of my first models. Perhaps we have become so isolated and alienated, that our lives revolve around the outer perception, a facade of skin and muscle that never reaches deep within our deeper selves as emotional thinking intelligent beings, but only wanting the fix of dopamine, that quick rush of satisfaction and unsustainable glory.
