“Due to my work in a psychiatric hospital I’m always in contact with people struggling with their thoughts and emotions. With this project I tried to express these thoughts in pictures. I wanted to make it recognizable for each of us, because everyone has moments in live in which they struggle with their thoughts. I used a diptych for each thought, one expresses the state of the mind for which I used common objects, the other expresses the state of the body, where the model takes different postures under a cloth. I used the same – unrecognizable – model in each pictures – so he became part of the object, a sort of statue. I experimented with different light settings but finally choose for natural light because of its soft effect.”
