Broken Shadow (2022) is a collection of fragmented memories.
Aiming for timelessness, the images touch upon childhood, youth and adulthood. They reflect on how we relate to ourselves and our surroundings, as human beings. How our adult lives are based upon our childhood, and how we relate to our memories, hopes and fears, sexuality and dreams.
The images evoke a feeling of contrast between the weight of the shadows, and the lightness of flight. In the shadows we are grounded, anchored, connected. Breaking open the shadow can reveal the beauty that hides there, but also uncertainty and fear.
A memory, good or bad, perhaps remembered well, perhaps just barely. Fragmented.
Broken Shadow is conceived as the third part of a trilogy, following Elsewhere (2011) and Moments Reflected (2020).
