In a world where the waves of life can easily engulf us, sometimes it’s essential to retreat, to spend time alone, and reconnect with oneself. This introspective journey can be both daunting and liberating. As Bertrand Singizwa beautifully expresses, “I spent some time with myself, saw myself, got out, and spoke to myself.”
The realization dawned upon Bertrand that the time spent alone was not only crucial but immensely significant. It became a period of rebuilding, a process of self-renewal. Through introspection and contemplation, he recognized the importance of taking small steps forward, even if progress seems incremental.
Bertrand’s journey mirrors that of swimming against the currents of life. While he may not have reached the shore yet, he’s mastering the art of navigating the waters. As he embarks on this journey of self-reconstruction, he begins with the symbolic act of building a fence.
Fences, as Bertrand eloquently describes, serve as protective barriers, shielding us from external threats and keeping our inner sanctum safe. They delineate boundaries, not just to keep intruders out but also to safeguard what’s within.
In every photograph, every meticulously curated detail, Bertrand Singizwa’s journey unfolds—a testament to the beauty of self-discovery and the transformative power of introspection.
