Silent Stories
* All images were created using AI
Imagine a world where silence speaks louder than words, where the quiet moments define us more than the clamorous ones."Silent Stories" is a series that captures the essence of unvoiced experiences, a visual symphony that speaks to the soul without uttering a single word. Each photograph is a frozen stanza of life's poem, enwrapped in the day's newsprint—today's headlines tomorrow's history.Each image was meticulously crafted using layers of newspaper that symbolize the layered complexity of human emotions. The subjects, shrouded in print, stand as sentinels of stories unspoken, their gaze piercing through to the observer's core.This series invites the viewer to embark on a journey of reflection, to explore the narrative behind the silence, the untold stories that lie beneath the surface of every soul.
Silent Epidemic: Overlooked Mental Health in Rural America
In the vast quiet of America’s heartland, a mental health crisis brews silently. Rural communities, often overlooked in the national conversation, face unique challenges. With only one psychiatrist for every 30,000 residents, access to mental health care is scarce. Stigma and isolation intensify the struggle for those needing support. “It’s the silence that hurts,” says a local farmer, whose family has tilled the soil for generations. Efforts are mounting to increase telehealth services, but the digital divide and lack of broadband in rural areas impede progress. Advocates push for change, but for many, help remains a whisper away.

Stylized Realism
The style of these images blends elements of realism with a surreal, almost caricature-like exaggeration of features and expressions, which gives them a distinctive, stylized look.I describe this series style as "stylized realism" or "expressive realism," where the high fidelity to real-life textures and lighting is combined with artistic embellishments that amplify certain emotions or features.Additionally, I wanted to create an alternative reality that feels both familiar and strange.The contrast and saturation of colors, along with the dramatic lighting and expressions, give off a cinematic quality, reminiscent of film stills that capture pivotal character moments.
