It's very difficult for me to explain these photos.
I feel that they express by themselves all what I thought when I read the title of this work, capturing every little feeling that that word brings me until today.
One day, I woke up and my brain just started working, drawing by itself a clear image. That concept lingered in my mind for days: a mysterious boy with his face all painted, standing on those railways...
After a while, an amazing group of people connected with my creative way of thinking, and that image started to vanish from my mind, because it no longer only existed there.
Exactly as I envisioned it, with messages and memories for my loved ones, for me in black and white, and for me in colors.

How/when did you start with photography?
I started with photography around 2018, when I was in a sad period of my life. It is an instrument that helped me immensely to express myself. Sometimes some people might consider me exaggerated or think that a camera cannot have much impact since it's just "pressing a button," but it was something that really helped me live, discover myself, and also let off steam when my life was a bit colorless. The process with photography was a mix of many experiences and visualizations that inspired me a lot. From taking courses at home to having creative blocks that helped me think about where I wanted to direct my photographic work.
What do you express in your photography?
I really like playing with colors, and it's very curious because I didn't like them before. When I started taking photos, I liked black and white a lot and used it a lot. It was during this turn in my life that I began to express myself more with the theme of color because I feel that's how I see the world, or that's how I started to see it.
How do colors relate to your project?
In this session that we did with the team, I wanted to explore a thought I had a lot during my peak youth years, which was in high school. That period was not very pleasant for me, and I liked to portray in the work a "before" in black and white, and then the photo of the character screaming, breaking with everything and starting to show in color. That expresses me, more than anything, the explosion of color because it is what I lived through and my way of seeing the world. I didn't like color before; I liked black and white for dressing, for my hair, for everything. So, I tried to portray that with the theme of black and white. There was a scream, a change, a metamorphosis, and life in color began.
How would you like the public to view your work?
When I'm asked to explain my work, I feel a sense of nakedness. It's very hard for me to explain a work, even though I've thought about every little detail. I like to keep the meaning to myself, and I like people to see with their own eyes, to give their own meaning. It's the internal debate I always have, whether to explain or not to explain because who am I to tell someone else what a work means? Just because I think it's great doesn't mean I want to pigeonhole the public by explaining what I think the work conveys. I believe in plural visions and debates, which is what I find most valuable: being able to generate a dialogue based on each one's own perceptions.
