A day to appreciate our beautiful planet and all of the unknown mysteries that Earth has to offer. When I took this photo I stood atop a sand mountain facing 360 degrees of nothingness that is the Sahara Desert. As my friends and I embraced the overwhelming feeling of being seemingly alone in a world of 7 billion a person the size of an ant broke the horizon. I watched as slowly a line of camels appeared out of the sand.
It’s finally here! Transcendence is on exhibit at the Urban Arts Space along with all the other incredible BFA senior projects. Check it out now through May 4
Sunlight changes everything. It’s ethereal, intangible and mood elevating - a spotlight projecting oneself beyond limitations of life’s circumstances.
I recently completed a book for my social documentary photography class. Although the book cannot encompass everything about life with Cystic Fibrosis, it felt important to share part of the story of about how one owns CF. An excerpt: One of the worst parts about getting sick is that I start to stress out because I remember seeing this Instagram post of someone who was very active in the CF community. This girl was only 20 years old when she got a bad infection and ended up passing away. Just a couple months before she got the infection she was traveling and fully functional, but once she got sick her body was not able to fight off the infection and she passed quickly. That is why I start to panic when I feel sickness coming on. How do I know that this sickness is not the one that will take my life? I remember reading the post and crying in my room, because she was literally just here. But for me sometimes I think that hope can be continuing to believe in an ideal despite major setbacks. Holding on to that greatest idea or vision. #cysticfibrosis #saltycysters
Towering canyon walls encompass one as they float through the borderlands of Texas and Mexico on the Rio Grande River. On the river, the the fragile desert ecosystem teems with life and both banks look the same. For a moment, one nearly forgets that that a National Emergency has been called to build a wall on the border. Not only would the wall fragment the ecosystem, but the remoteness of the place makes the concept of a wall dividing a seemingly arbitrary border seem out of place.
“Peace is the state of fulfilling the deepest desire of the soul. It is the condition of flying with the greatest impulse that enters us from the unknown”
In honor of International Women’s day and advancements in the fight for a cure for cystic fibrosis, Maria, a strong woman who reminds us of the beauty of breathing #internationalwomensday #cffoundation
