Emerging, Shannon Maltbie-Davis

My self-portraits are a direct reflection of my internal condition. The ideas I choose to visually illustrate are based on personal reflection. My work is the culmination of deep introspection on the person I think I am and the person I want to become. Photography becomes a form of self-healing. The images produced are a vessel to hold my thoughts, emotions, and feelings. A physical space to discard and store the weaker portions of myself as I continually strive to evolve into a better person and, hopefully, debut a stronger and wiser version of myself.
