ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Limited edition of 30 While working on this series of self-portraits I spent a lot of time with myself, contemplating and questioning different aspects of my life, particularly the rules and boundaries I set for myself. Who would I find? While self-reflecting for this series, I also found inside myself is a beautiful flower, soft and beautiful. It was vulnerable, it was fragile. I danced with myself in my own world, feeling my own body, my own boundaries, my own sensuality. Becoming truly vulnerable is terrifying. Will I be judged by friends and family, by society, for showing my naked body? I unearthed shame for my own body deep inside myself. But becoming vulnerable was the first step in discovering my own truth and my relationship to it. This series of self-portraits is the result of listening more intently to my feelings, thoughts, and desires. I discovered a more profound love and appreciation for my own skin, comfort, and security in being open to others. I believe we are all searching for a sense of balance, the balance between comfortable and uncomfortable, a shaky state of zen.

Gala Semenova is a self-taught Fine Art Portrait Photographer who lives and works in San Diego, California. I was born in Tula, Russia in 1981 and relocated to the States in 2009. My journey to discovering my own femininity revealed a deep connection to women as the subject of my artistic expression. Every expression of femininity—a woman’s personal story, her cultural context, every defeat and victory—sheds light on the complexities of my own womanhood. My work is a response to the pressure-filled, patriarchal culture i left behind in Russia and the youth/beauty, power-obsessed culture i now experience in America. I strive to capture the true spirit of women, amplifying and revealing something absolutely personal that oftentimes is shared by many yet hasn’t been acknowledged or exposed. With each portrait, i aim to reveal the vulnerable woman inside to allow space for recognition, healing, and empowerment. My photography presents women and their stories, documents their lives in such a way that is feminine, powerful, and touching. Each photograph i take reflects a part of me, of who i am.
