Big girl under a palm tree

Sometimes we carry our insecurities deep inside us our entire lives. You can be peacefully sunbathing under a palm tree in Ibiza, taking selfies for your Instagram, and still silently battling the same insecurities you had when you turned 15. 

Big girl under a palm tree is part from the series 'Tropical reflections', a collection about contradictions: memory and desire, vulnerability and resilience, the gaze of others and the way we choose to see ourselves.
