Photographic Homecoming & Origins of Fathers

​

1995/2020

​

Archival material, silver gelatin prints
10 x 15 cm, various sizes

​

In Photographic Homecoming, eight photographs left behind by my paternal grandparents are examined. The images show my grandfather returning to his childhood home after 60 years.

​

The work deals with subjects like time, decay, family and masculinity. 

​

In Origins of Fathers, a work containing photographic fragments in black and white, me and my father visit the place where the original photographs were taken 25 years earlier.
