The series “Hindering Narcissus” is a dedication to the children of war. In the portraits, they are constrained by a white shroud, their ability to bloom hindered. Their beauty and innocence is laced with sorrow, their existence is muted and endangered, and their fragility is palpable. The delicate flowers adorning their hair are called “Narcissus” and despite their fragile nature, they grow and flourish in the meadows and forests at the end of winter amidst harsh conditions and as such give hope for the Spring that is to come. Narcissus is a symbol of rebirth and a new beginning and the series is a silent prayer for peace.
