Out of the Fog is a self-portrait photograph originally taken from artist Jaeda DeWalt’s book/series, Haunting Hands and is part of the DeWalt Gallery collection.

About this image
I created this self-portrait while at a crossroads in my life. I was starting to find my voice and that gave me confidence, that confidence gave me courage and i could feel the heavy, emotional toxicity, starting to leave my body.

Out of the Fog

I have come out of the fog
Penetrating this filthy haze that taints my innocence
No longer a victim of my past
But rather a survivor, fearlessly exploring my future
Releasing myself from these chains of self-hatred
Shedding the shame that has coated my soul
For too many years

Stepping out of this chamber of horrors
In which my mind has been a prisoner
For so long
Lifting off my shoulders the burdens
Of anger and resentment
I have been carrying for this beast

Knowing that though I can never forget
I must forgive the evils
Forced upon my flesh
Rather than weak and dependent
I continue to grow resilient and strong

Utilizing challenges of the past
As tools to cope with
The struggles that lie ahead
It is now I let go of the victim inside me
Drinking in the freedom from a past
That will no longer bind me
