“Icreate photographs with the intent to provoke internal questioning.
Can society truly de ne what is appropriate for an indi- vidual based solely on their age? Are young pressured into various behaviors which are beyond their biologi-
cal age? It has been claimed that individuals are molded by both nature and nurture. However, is there a de nitive turning point in a person’s life transitioning them from child- hood to adult? What makes these two worlds so entirely different? My photography is meant to stir a conversation surrounding issues of media and societal pressures placed on young women.”
