• Artist Statement

  I have been attending my friend's show at his family-owned circus for years. While they present the same thing at every show, as I grew up, I began viewing their performance from a more artistic point of view. I captured this photograph at the beginning of the show, moments before she climbed the rope. Given that I knew the show by heart, I knew which moments would make an unforgettable photograph for my friend and his family.

• Creative Statement

  To me, creativity means to be able to have a space where I can express my thoughts and emotions freely. It is a space where my inner child can be released and have no limits to creating unforgettable pieces of artwork.
