Description
To stand in your innocence and your pure heart requires much courage to let yourself be stripped of everything that doesn't match it's nature.
This is a self portrait from 2016, as around that time I began to dismantle old conditioning from my family that caused me to feel a sense of despondency, frozenness, and hopelessness. I was being rejected by my older siblings and cast aside, and the feelings of worthlessness were palpable.
I had a remarkable encounter with a man named Boogaloo who opened my eyes to the reality of Christ, and the emptiness I had felt with filled in with an unyielding love for me - one I had caught glimpses of before but never allowed fully in.
I didn't realize this experience was about to radically change my life. It felt scary to let go of the ironclad control I had held on to for so long, but it allowed me a freedom that I had never felt before. And it was worth it the dismantling that ensued.
