​Artist's Statement
I consider the ability to take photos through how I'm feeling as a tremendous privilege as it provides me an emotional and creative outlet like no other. It’s all about perspective and the ability to create a unique aspect to a photo that makes it so special and personal for me. I like being in full control of the creation and execution because the ability to convey a message/reaction from another is the greatest feeling personally. Ironically, the theme of isolation is usually what channels my emotions directly into creating so I thought it was fitting to represent these images from initial feelings of boredom and thus trying to use perspective to tell a story.

Priya Bhavikatti is a sophomore at Culver City High School in Culver City, California.

​Taylor Wang is an emerging artist in Seattle whose work reflects the unique experiences she has gained in adolescence. Wang hopes to use her art as a vessel to express the fear and uncertainty of growing up as part of an interconnected, socially conscious generation. Through art, she creates open conversation across generations about mental health, identity, and contemporary issues. A strong advocate for art equity, Wang runs a nonprofit called Student Art Spaces when she is not in the studio. Find her art on instagram.com/yingshiart.

​Drowning appears on the cover of our spring issue.
