About the series
An exploration of instinct, identity, and the freedom to belong to yourself.
Untamed explores the parts of a woman’s identity that resist being shaped by others. Alongside nature the women embody curiosity, intuition, defiance, and quiet strength. Their encounters with wildlife give form to an inner wilderness,something intimate, alert, and wholly their own. Held in the deep blue of cyanotype, each portrait invites you to consider what you might become when you trust your instincts.
About the Artist
I am drawn to what remains beneath a composed surface. Instinct, unease, sensuality, resistance. The feelings that can be difficult to accommodate within an image of femininity built around restraint.

Perhaps the heart has always remembered what the mind forgot.
That we are leaf and blood , root and breath , born of the same earth.
There is no border where the human ends and nature begins.
Only life taking different forms.
