A series of photographs dedicated to growing up and transitioning to independent life, living on a university campus, of my eldest daughter Alisa.
I wanted to create a project about my love for her and her beauty, but I see how my anxiety for her and the sadness of a mother left in an empty house are reflected in my works.
A secondary character appearing in my shots is my daughter's beloved, who left his home, family, and native country to live with her.
