In Between
This project is about documenting places and people inhabiting the in-between realities of social constructs. It looks at a society within the boundaries of Europe, but not necessarily representative of European way of life. Freedom of political choice is a right, but is repeatedly stifled by corruption and lack of prospects. Its people live between the remnants of the communist ideology and the diminishing hopes for a democratic present. They co-exist (and co-create a future) amidst avariety of ethnic cultures and perceive life through different languages, (both inherited from the past). Technology is often found in its most contrasting, caricature-like extremes.
It sees childhood, parenting, camaraderie, dilemmas, death ... the uniting power of the human condition.
