A.C.N.E. is a short portrait series of my biggest insecurity- my cystic acne. At the start of the pandemic, I broke out in pimples. I thought it would go away on its own until it developed into cystic acne. Years later, to this day, I still have acne. It has significantly gotten better, but now, I have the scarring from it. I would like to continue breaking the stigma around acne. This is the reason why I created these portraits.
