Vnútorné prežívanie, s jeho negatívnymi i pozitívnymi stránkami, je najpodstatnejšou časťou našej existencie. Ono utvára kým sme v sebe, voči sebe i k druhým. Všetko začína v našom vnútri. Rôzne podoby nášho vnútorného sveta by sme sa mali naučiť zvládať a tak kultivovať svoju duševnú i fyzickú krásu. Nájsť spojenie, spoznať sa a akceptovať to kým sme.
Práve túto problematiku riešia fotografie, na ktorých autorka skúma svoje telo a pocity, nachádza vlastné hranice, na ktorých balansuje, či ktoré dokonca dobrovoľne prekračuje. Uvedomuje si objavené limity a skrz tie i samú seba. Zdanlivej drsnosti fotografií vytvárajú protipól básnické texty, ktoré ponúkajú nový pohľad, podčiarkujú jemnosť a emočnosť vyobrazených situácií a tak nabádajú pozorovateľa aktu k novej percepcii. Prijať vlastnú temnotu je prvým krokom k jej negácii.

Inner experience, with its negative and positive aspects, is the most essential part of our existence. It shapes who we are in ourselves, towards ourselves and towards others. Everything begins within. We should learn to manage the various forms of our inner world and thus cultivate our mental and physical beauty. To find connection, to know ourselves and to accept who we are.
This is exactly the issue addressed by the photographs in which the artist explores her body and feelings, finding her own boundaries on which she balances, or even willingly crosses. She is aware of the limits she has discovered and, through them, of herself. The apparent harshness of the photographs is counterbalanced by poetic texts that offer a new perspective, underlining the delicacy and emotionality of the depicted situations and thus encouraging the observer of the nude to a new perception. Accepting one’s own darkness is the first step towards its negation.
