FEBRUARY 2019: HTET T. SAN

 
 
 
Photography to me is the simplest tool to tell stories.     
 
 
 
 
I am constantly inspired by what our minds see through the external surface, yet I am drawn to what is underneath, the invisible reality of our dreams, hopes, fears, emotions, and states of mind.    
 
 
 
 
 
 
My art embodies these continuous explorations as I experience both the visible and intangible realities of life.    
 
 
In recent years, I have explored ideas of identity, existence, memories, and human experience, and lately I have started to incorporate installation, projections, and sculptural mediums to my practice, expanding it to be more immersive to create stronger emotional connections.
