My Waking Life is part personal diary and part surreal landscape study. The images follow a continued line of reasoning that our reality is in fact illusory and malleable. The idea is paralleled through the concept of Maya in Hindu philosophy, in which the reality we perceive with our senses is a deceit. Only by looking past that veil can one see their own pure potentiality and unity with the universe. This is my effort to see past the veil.
