Things get better

This collection of digital and film photography explores the history of multiple families, generations and places. It is dedicated to everyone who has ever had to leave home for good. Willingly or ­involuntarily – the realization of having left behind everything leaves one in a state of in-­between – unwilling to let go, yet unable to hold on. Do it multiple times and the feeling of falling through realities leaves you wondering where you belong and where you come from – waking up from dreams of lives that you have seemingly lived lifetimes ago – exploring roots that may or may not be your own. If you ever find yourself in a state of in-between, where you are not even prepared to unpack your suitcase, let alone yourself, just remember that everything so far has been ­temporary. If you have moved on once, you can do it again. You might even encounter ­something beautiful along the way when you least expect it.
