All right reserved. images › The ”Self-portraits” project is a part of a long-term work focusing on the topic of identity and my perception of the human's appearance beyond the material. I consider the human body as a prism which diffracts the light and accumulates colour electricity around the torso. This emanation (aura) embodies our metaphysical nature. I’m working with the colouring of my own biofield, captured with an aura camera. These colours are manifestation of my state of mind - a visual language that gives expression to my inner life and I transform them freely into self-portraits. I’m interested in their impact, symbolism and in the exchange of energy arising in the process of communication between people.
