The “No-Self” is the second portrait of the "Transhuman Series." The work portrays a transhuman who fiercely believes that "the self does not exist" there is no persistent self —nothing about existence remains the same at all times, he cannot find anything that could be a self of the sort any would imagine themselves to be.

In photography, the duality of negative and positive plays a crucial role. This duality is mirrored in the philosophical exploration within the artwork. The character's conviction that the self does not exist represents the negative aspect, questioning and dismantling conventional notions of identity. This negation becomes the catalyst for the positive aspect, opening up new possibilities for understanding and self-realization.
