This personal photographic series explores the tone of intimacy and trust between two boys and their father. It also addresses an attempt of identity erasure and the struggle for a father to escape family instilled behavior where machismo and fear have proliferated for multiple generations as a cultural misnomer for respect. The boys stand in as a cultural paradigm shift asserting their new understanding of masculinity while also addressing the difficulty of breaking the cycle of fear and dominance from the old guard.
