a lot of my inspiration lately has stemmed from my fascination and fear of the disease biid. it is a disease where one has the desire to be an amputee because they were born feeling a part of their body does not belong there. they truly believe less is more. and that only when part of them is removed will they feel whole. i think this translates to my continual attraction to negative space within my images and my curiousity of finding complete in the emptiness.
i first learned about biid when watching nip/tuck. but seriously it has changed me. you guys know how i hate nubs anyway, and the desire for one completely baffles my mind. yet i think about it a lot. i do not relate to biid sufferers, so much to the extent that i want to be inside their heads to just have some idea of what they are going through. i am trying to explore this through my photographs.

is that for real? sounds like people who are bored and don't have anything productive to do with their anxieties. Ah life!
