I before myself

I before myself

This series is an autobiographical piece of work dedicated to the period when I was not here yet, but I was present – as a fetus in my mother’s body. The title and the unfocused images reflect the emotions and feelings of the period before my birth. Naturally, I do not remember that time, but I have learned about it from the stories of others.

Part of images presents staged portraits and even one self-portrait. That is important for the proper development of the story. Other photos reflect events that happened during the time I was in the womb. The whole story is about the connection of two levels, namely real, actual events, and those on the symbolic level.
