Philosophical thoughts

'Today, you and I…
What do you think about as you live each day of your life?'

Most people are born into ordinary lives, and most of them continue to live life just as they are. Work, Finances, socializing, rest; most people's daily concerns render them too busy to ask important questions about their own existence, questions about who they are, what they think and how they are living in this world. They hardly ever think about those essential ideas as they undergo the pressures of their busy lives. The lack of those ideas represents a lonely inner side of people in today‟s era.

Beginning in London in 2014, I began to track down the question that makes people think about themselves, their lives and their existence.
This serial art work called 'Murmur' started from this simple but important (yet also easily forgotten) question concerning „identity‟: Who am I?

50 people from different cultural backgrounds, genders and ages were given time to think about their identity and asked to define themselves. The moments they were reflecting on these questions were then captured in these photographs.

The time for philosophical thoughts. It asks you, “SEE OPTIONS BELOW”

Are you really alive?
Are you living well?
Are you thinking about how you are living life?
Are you really living your life?
Are you thinking about what kind of life you‟re living?
