Exhibition

Ten years ago my mother started to suffer from dementia at a young age. Without being aware of this, a grieving process was set in motion where I couldn't distinguish her emotions from my own. After my mother passed away I started to realize that my body was in a constant state of survival mode from which I was trying to free myself.

During the period of her illness, where fear and sadness predominated, resulted in this intuitive work. I picked up my camera and began photographing my surroundings and myself. The camera became a mirror for emotions I found difficult to express in words.

From over a hundred images, I made a small selection, which I showcased at Loods 6 in a group exhibition with the Sint Lucas artists’ association.
