The 'Confines of a Mind' self-portrait series is absolutely arresting in its artistic nature. Although it clearly makes use of photo manipulating techniques, there is an authenticity about it that has very much to do with the subject's own photogenic qualities.

Photographed by Norway-based Tara Ghale, the Confines of a Mind photo series is eccentric, subdued and thought-provoking. As a budding photographer, what more could you ask for? I can't wait to see more from this young artist.
