The Space Between Childhood and Adulthood

Also known as the Student Stuffies Series, this collection of images features photographs of college students and their childhood stuffed animals. I was inspired by the universal experience of grappling with the newfound expectations of adulthood while still feeling like a child. The commonality of holding onto parts of our childhood during times of self discovery deeply resonated with me, and made me feel less alone during my own transitionary period. In hopes to do the same for my peers, I asked for their vulnerability and was met with an encouraging amount of enthusiasm and adorable stuffed animals.
