Bad Luck

This photo was taken for a themed shoot about bad luck. The central concept explores the inevitability of consequence. We often treat "bad luck" as a ghost—something that haunts us from the outside. This piece internalizes that superstition, suggesting that when we "break" our luck, we also break the way we perceive ourselves.
