Only Me on TV

When I was small, the TV was my only real friend. I studied the screen for the secrets of life, love and motivation. The TV taught me to dream in narratives.

Media is more than entertainment. The stories we consume shape us - our dreams, our fears and the limits of what we believe is possible for our lives. These narratives, with their ability to confine or empower, live within us. What happens when we decide to write our own story?

In this project every frame is a deliberate act of self-reinvention. I step into carefully constructed scenes that are part memory, part future vision, and entirely a dialogue with myself. Each photograph is a way to nurture the parts of me that once found solace in the glow of a screen. I am writing my own TV show.

I used to fall asleep to the repetition of my favorite shows, needing their background noise to feel safe in the dark. That solitary act of watching was my escape and my anchor. Now I am the storyteller. I am alone - but not isolated - with the power to channel my early longing into something fearless and transformative. By rewriting my narrative I am reshaping my identity, exploring the delicate interplay between the stories that surround us and the stories we tell ourselves.

I am no longer an audience member. I am the director of my own unfolding story. Fearless, playful, and completely in charge of my narrative destiny.
