silver gelatine prints on PE-Paper, reproductions
“after you rampaged through the burrows of my mind, there was none of me left”
The photographs of the 000X series revolve around the processing of acute complex trauma in the life of the artist, and are meant as an uncensored expression of raw feeling, as well as a diary of photographic self-portraits.
After the first ever photo series by the artist, 0001, has delved into topics of spirituality, the successive series 0002 takes a more physical approach in contrast.
What do you do, if a clearly set “no” is ignored? How do you rebuild trust? How do you recollect yourself, and how do you tell your mother?
In these basement photographs, an especially formative memory is rewritten, not relived. The goal is to find closure, to leave the past behind and to find new strength and courage.
