MFA Photography

"On the blink of left-side brain" is a series of photographs that depict the state of mind with borderline personality disorder (BPD) while balancing on the edge of recognition and alienation. An individual with BPD tends to process information at extremes based on their memories and experiences. As a quick movement to capture the moment into memory, eyes blinks might be more poetic to describe the situation while sometimes it is easier to forget things in one blink. With a conceptual approach, recreating some particular scenes to embody the moment became provoking. By applying a metaphorical language, I attempted to amplify the loneliness of having BPD by creating compositions or settings that generate tranquil portraits. I try involving the viewers in a way that seems almost like looking at a picture which was put in a wallet to remind someone that never wipe this off in life.
