My name is Erika and I photograph myself with myself… with myself x8
I am a Shadow
Currently on auction for 60XTZ!
Thank you @328jesse 💯🙏🏻

I look down at my shadow |
This version of me feels impure |
Broken, flawed, resistant to change |
I don't like me very much |
But this is a part of me |
You cannot run from your shadow |
We cannot have light without dark |
We cannot have dark without light |
🖤🤍

I don’t have a lightning bolt⚡️and so it’s only a matter of time before I’m basically thrown off this app - if you want to find me on the internet my Twitter is @normalistoxic and my IG is @erikalamothephotography 🫶🏻
Drowning in a sea of tall grass
At least here we can breathe
On to the Next

I take leaps of faith ✨
Over the hard, jagged rock ✨
Maybe I'll land safely ✨
But if I don't ✨
At least I can say that I tried 🙏🏻

#TezPortraitDay kicking off real well!!

Black On Both Sides / Mos Def 1999

One of the first hiphop albums to introduce me into my love for the genre. From front to back, this album is a masterpiece and a classic.

Gotta ride 🏍️ Japan 🇯🇵
Fleeting thought spiral
“What if” this and “what if” that
Unnecessary
Strange Days / The Doors 1967
Can’t forget about The Doors! They have paved the way for this style of music and I feel many bands have drawn inspiration from their sound for decades.

Talking Heads | Speaking in Tongues 1983
My house
is out of the ordinary
That’s right
Don’t wanna hurt nobody
Some things sure can sweep me off my feet
BURNING DOWN THE HOUSE 🔥

Solitude silence
Impossible to connect
With mind’s noise yelling
All My Vices has a 50XTZ auction kicked off thanks to Photez!! The “With Myself” self portrait collection has been an understandably hard sell - it’s a reminder of loneliness, defeat, and isolation. However, it is also cathartic, honest, and real. I wear my heart on my sleeve and I’m glad my authentic self is supported 🖤

I finally did it! I have listed my first SOL piece on Exchange! I know I’m late to the game but I’m very excited to begin minting photography from Iceland - images that are so special and I’m happy to present them on a chain that is different. I would love to follow more artists and grow my portfolio! ❤️🙏🏻

It’s the emptiness that grabs me

Los Angeles by Flying Lotus 2008
Electronic / Experimental
I don’t listen to much electronic music but this album is fantastic with such complex combinations of samples and sounds.

Digital and mixed media representing my 4 major moods -
Fuck off, Fucking hell, Fuck it, and Fuck you ✨💯😌 respectfully
Circling back to
A time where I was secure
What does that mean now?
Meals alone in an empty apartment. I’ve changed my life around since then.
I wonder if I’m ever thought about..
I wonder if I even mattered enough.
But now almost year and a half later I do mean something to people. More, in fact. The best I can do is be loving and open to the gems in my life.
@papabearded is doing an insane collaboration SOL drop as mosaics with multiple mixed media artists and it’s LIVE on Truffle!! Thank you so much for choosing me among so much talent for this project! 🙏🏻
My OG art (centered) generated some awesome pieces 💯💯 so happy with this!
