About the exhibition
In my debut photo exhibit, “You Got Soul,” I explore the profound connection between personal growth and the expressive power of hip-hop. Inspired by the iconic rap song by Eric B. & Rakim, I embark on a visual journey that celebrates the diverse individuals who embody the spirit of this influential genre.
“You Got Soul” serves as a testament to the human experience within hip-hop culture. Through a series of evocative portraits, I aim to capture the essence of my subjects, each representing a unique version of themselves. Just as hip-hop encompasses a range of emotions and experiences, I seek to portray the depth and complexity of these individuals through their expressions and personalities.
“Motion Reverie” employs the technique of dragging the shutter to create an intentional blur, capturing the dynamic movement of my subjects. Through this process, I aim to reveal the essence and soul of each individual, showcasing the energy and vitality that emanates from their actions. By freezing moments of motion in a blurred state, I invite viewers to witness the raw emotion and spirit that define my subjects, emphasizing their presence and evoking a visceral connection with the imagery.
“You Got Soul” invites viewers to embrace the power and individuality within hip-hop culture. By capturing the essence of my subjects, I aim to create an emotional connection and foster a deeper appreciation for the personal growth and self-expression found within the world of hip-hop. It is my hope that this exhibition sparks dialogue, inspires self-reflection, and reinforces the timeless and transformative qualities of hip-hop in our lives.
