D R E A M S Limited Edition Fine Art Print Lustre Photographic Archival Crystal Paper Complete with Certificate of Authenticity & Signed. 16 x 20 artwork on 20x24" Frame: Westminster Black Finished in Gallery ArtGlass Taken in the morning, using only natural window light. Using a Sony A7 camera tethered to a mobile phone to use as a shutter. This piece is about still wanting to achieve our dreams & aspirations & develop whilst living with Muscular Dystrophy. Finding love, having a family, soul searching, being at peace. "I once had a dream, I was floating in, A space so beautiful, so tranquil, so pure.... I now know what that space is & was, A special place within your heart." I have Muscular Dystrophy. I am a wheelchair dependant photographer & artist. This self portrait piece is inspired by the daily challenges faced living with a progressive muscle wasting disease called Muscular Dystrophy. This piece is concentrating on showing the wasting & winging scapular & the back. Coming to terms with an ever changing wasting body & learning to still love & embrace myself. Helping others do the same is very important to me. I wanted to document my journey living with Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. This is part of an honest & open self portrait project. Depicting the raw emotion & struggles of the progressive disease. Documenting the rollercoaster of anxiety,fear, lonliness & pain. Seeing the effects & coping with the emotional challenges of an ever changing physical wasting alongside weakness. Delivering strength, guts & determination to the viewer allowing those with similar struggles to experience togetherness throughout. We will fight, we are strong & we do have a voice, a soul & a mind.

"I am a 36 year old Self Portrait Artist. My primary styles are abstract/contemporary/fine art nude portraits. Working mainly in natural light, my works are mostly black and whites & monochrome based portraits. My work is based around my own documentation of my journey living with a life limiting, disabling, degenerative disease. I have Muscular Dystrophy & I am peg fed via a tube into the intestine. I am a powerchair user & started to document my body in nude form as a way of expressing the struggles, the trials, pain, isolation & heartache which goes with this disease as well as the achievements, lessons in body confidence, acceptance of constant changes & abilities. Whilst at the same time creating a space to feel freedom no longer confined by my disease. These experiences whilst making the artwork led me futher through the storytelling, by creating poetry for some of the artworks. I found my artwork has helped those in similar situations to myself by being able to talk about and approach these issues that we are scared to discuss & speak out about for fear of being labelled as negative. I wish everyone to label themselves as beautiful. Using art in photography is my way to reach out to the viewer, the fellow MD sufferers & raise awareness at the same time" Thank you
