Missing Pieces of a Puzzle
The captions reflect her spontaneous thoughts, when seeing the final, two-layer pictures the first time. The colour layer shows sceneries of her at home, overlayed by a black & picture, hiding pieces of her reality.
“The floor seems thin. There seems a risk that the woman collapses onto me. I prefer to live in the underground over walking as a big woman through life.”
“A part of me is hidden. I need to dig deeper and remove the surface to find my real self and to feel emotions.”
“I am still not giving up, though I can't find the puzzle pieces of my life anymore.”
“Caged. No air to breath. Petrified. A monster.”
“I am in this interim world, from which I can observe only.”
“Playing music to avoid the compulsion of panicking. Playing music to find the puzzle pieces of my life again.”
“Caged … again. A psychiatric department? A prison? A baby’s crib?”
“Something is hidden. I don't see which part of me is missing. What holds me back?”
"Raised to appreciate suffering."
The Missing Pieces of a Life's Puzzle were presented at MAGNUM PHOTOS in Paris, France, August 2022
