“Assimilation" is a compelling image from the 'Otherworldly Collection' that delves into the theme of identity and belonging. The piece portrays an extraterrestrial entity, donning the classic human garb of a tailored suit, as it confronts its own reflection. Caught in the act, its large, soul-penetrating eyes hold a gaze that is filled with a complex mix of surprise and hostility. The stark black and white tones of the photograph underscore the alien's struggle to mimic and meld into the human society that surrounds it. The reflection serves as a poignant reminder of its true nature and the duplicity of its existence among us. This image is not only a visual feast but also a narrative about the search for integration, the challenges of disguise, and the universal desire to find one's place in the world — regardless of origin.
