A MAN, STRONGER THAN LIFE ITSELF
2019
To remind myself of being safe and loved, even in the darkest times.
After losing my grandfather, I felt suspended somewhere in a dark and perplexing world. No questions nor answers were crossing my mind and I missed my noisy thoughts.
It was my best friend, the model in the pictures, who gave me the strength to make this series while still feeling awry. That’s why there are elements of the photographs that feel like the parts of dreams that turn into a nightmare.
"I feel like I am trapped in a world that is built upon rules and ideas that only exist in the corners of my subconscious life. And I very much enjoy being in that place."
"I was suspended somewhere between a familiar and perplexing world that I have seen and felt inside of myself and that same world when it goes completely awry. In other words, there are elements of these photographs that feel like the safe visions of a dream. And there are elements of the photographs that feel like the parts of a dream that turn into a nightmare."
