Artist Statement
This image began with the impulse to jump – a small rebellion against the fixed identities we’re expected to inhabit. The jacket becomes a uniform, a label worn like armor, announcing a belonging that feels both chosen and imposed. The trampoline turns the scene into a loop, a cycle of rising and falling that echoes the rhythms of self-performance. The scattered props stage a gym of contradictions, where effort looks theatrical and sincerity becomes a kind of sport. The truth is that even our escapes can feel scripted, especially when the world insists on telling us who we are.
