"Physically, your body must follow the nature into which you were born, and in that context the cycle of youth and age is highly important. In some ways, the rhythm of birth and death is like a breath taken and exhaled. Feel your own breath as it comes and goes. You are not it, yet it comes into you and leaves you, and without its continuous flow you could not physically exist. Just so your lives go in and out of you - you and yet not you. And a portion of you, while letting them all go, remembers them and knows their journey."
My sister first asked me to take these shots of her for her final art presentation a few years ago, though they never ended up being used. They're still some of my favourite portraits I've ever taken.
