Delvings into the nuances of male-to-male vulnerability, this series explores the complex ways men can find intimacy, support, and understanding in each other.
At the heart of this exploration is Sam: a tall, eccentric yet soft-spoken young man who embodies both strength and fragility. With a unique ability to hold space for connection, Sam becomes a vessel through which vulnerability and empathy can be channeled.
Our shared histories, marked by challenges and unresolved pain, draw us together, creating a profound sense of understanding.
This project is a visual diary, a letter to Sam and the friendship that has emerged between us.It captures Sam in various stages of his daily life.
In the studio,Sam transforms, taking on different identities, shapes, and roles,each a reflection of masculinity’s fluid nature.
Through these images,themes of identity, and masculinity emerge, exploring how personal histories are embedded within our bodies.
