I have been photographing my daughter for a couple of years now. Pestka follows her liberation from the cocoon of helplessness, like a sunflower seed under the hard shell, waiting for metamorphosis and release. Through the lens of my camera, I watched her grow, her body balancing on the border between innocence and guilt, between unawareness and awareness.
