The Crying Couple
DESCRIPTION
On a quiet winter night, I looked out a window. I could see a building far away, the windows were illuminated, and I could vaguely make out the people inside the apartments. When I imagined what they might be doing, my mind fluttered between wild fantasies and mundane clichés. I was curious to compare my expectations to the reality of their lives.
After months of continuous observation in different parts of the city, I collected hundreds of photographs of strange, comical, and often haunting moments.
At times, I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the human nature when it was not guarded, not self-conscious and completely uninhibited. This provided me with a stage where it was possible to observe myself in the most secret and vulnerable moments of others.
In order to render the subjects unrecognizable, and in an attempt to render them more archetypal, they are taken out of context and displaced from their original habitat.
