I have always been inspired by the way<br />

photographs are able to capture and to convey<br />

emotions. A single photograph can relay a unique<br />

message for each individual viewer. It is this fact that<br />

inspires me to produce work that viewers will find<br />

meaningful.<br />

With these photographs, my aim is to capture<br />

the intense emotions that embody the Take Back the<br />

Night event. I want to present the issues and the harsh<br />

realities of sexual violence. <strong>The</strong>se issues deserve to be<br />

highlighted so that the voices and messages of those<br />

who have been assaulted can be heard in hopes that<br />

we can all, without fear, take back the night.<br />
