"Projected" was the name of a series that I created with YPA (Young Photographer's Alliance), where the theme of the collection was named "Escape" - We had mentors to guide us as we put together a show and created a whole new series within a couple of weeks. It was a great experience where I became friends with a lot of really rad people.
I found escape to mean what we hide behind from day to day - so projections it was. I wrote:
A TIME COMES UPON ALL
AT ONE POINT OR ANOTHER
WHEN WE WISH OUR FEET
WEREN'T PLANTED IN A SITUATION
ROOTS INCHING DEEPER INTO DISCOMFORT
MAKING US LUST OUT TO OUR SURROUNDINGS
HOPING IT WOULD SWALLOW US WHOLE
SPITTING US UP AFTER THE FOG HAS RISEN
CAMOUFLAGE OUR SKIN
COVER OUR FLAWS
SMOOTH OVER OUR INSECURITIES
FILL OUR DITCHES OF DOUBT
TO AVOID THE CHANCE OF A GLANCE
FROM OTHERS TO SEE US CRAWLING BENEATH IT
SWALLOWED BY SURROUNDINGS
SHIELDED FROM EVERYTHING
INCLUDING EVEN OURSELVES
ESCAPED FROM TRUTH
PROJECTED AS EVERYTHING ELSE
