Amor Fati
A visual response to Friedrich Nietzsche’s concept translated as the "love of one's fate". In which one sees everything that happens, including suffering and loss, as good or, at the very least, necessary. Conceptually I take existing images & overlay a second reality representing the hand of fate.
