Biography:
Born and raised in Malaysia, Nadirah is expecting her BFA in Photography from the Fashion Institute of Technology in May 2010. Statement: I am a dreamer. Often, when the everyday routine becomes overwhelming, I indulge in dreaming. I dream of floating in the vast ocean, letting my fears, tears, and problems dissolve. I become weightless and free, at one with the water. Photography allows me to escape my physical reality and dissolve into the sea of subconsciousness. I am interested in creating images of this transitional state between one world, or one state of being, and the other. Bodies of water play a major role in my work, symbolizing this world of dreams.. The lack of gravity of underwater gives me a sense of freedom and lightness, a sense of magic and mystery, where solids turn into liquid, and where the physical world turns into the surreal. It is the liminal state that I long to inhabit and to represent artistically. Through my pictures, I hope to take you into this world of liquid dreams, that exists within us all.

Thank you for your help ladies & gents.
Till then Fabulous Readers.
xoxo
