Artist Statement

I was caged inside my studio apartment in a winter as I had broken my leg and I was living continents away from my family and friends. More than my leg, my heart was broken as being alone I could see everything else were moving around me except myself being stuck at home.
This is a moment in one evening during those days, captured my emotion using my Nikon D7100 camera- "I wanna be free".

How it fits into contest

When I was broken down in a tiny apartment continents away from home, my inner spirit wanted to give up everyday. And everyday I was trying to make it understand, it's gonna get over one day.
