Student Juried Show: Debut the New
I am "debuting the new" through this photograph by the way that it was taken. I used a pinhole lens to achieve its look, a form of photography that isn't commonly used. The topic of this piece is also something that isn't often talked about: how antidepressants can hurt you while they are helping. The blurred effects of the pinhole show the brain fog and the lost sense of self that can occur while taking these medications.
