Futility
(ongoing project)
Riding a motorbike and simultaneously photographing dogs chasing you is not easy, but it is quite fun. In these moments you feel the fine line between control and chaos, between the will to continue and the need to let go of what is happening. Life, like this chase, is a constant movement ā a quest for freedom, shrouded in uncertainty.
From a philosophical point of view, this is an encounter with the moment in its purest form ā raw, unpredictable, outside the framework of what is planned. To experience the moment means to accept incompleteness and instability as part of the essence of being. To photograph in motion, without a guarantee of a clear frame, is an act of trust in reality as it is.
Escaping the dog is also escaping control ā and in those moments, I find a strange kind of freedom. That freedom enters the frame. The photographs I make then are raw and unresolved, but they speak truthfully. Not about appearances, but about how life actually feels when Iām caught inside it.
