Black day (Series)
DESCRIPTION
When you are stuck and don't know what to do next. There is a time for revelation. My series of photographs is a black day. This is me, these are my thoughts when I'm not well. It's a dark day that with me throughout life. My mother told me that when I was born I was silent.She thought I was not going to live, but the doctors saved me. In 8 years I have very sore ears, I remember how I couldn't stand it anymore.Then I found out that the disease is not treated and the hearing will gradually fade.At the age of 11 my father died. This all happened before my eyes.Then I started to have bouts of the same thing that I saw.At 18 years old I got hit in the kidney. But it was not the worst. Terrible was the diagnosis that I had an incurable kidney disease.But despite everything I kept going. At the time I had a band, I sing and write songs, not paying attention to the problem. It was the best of times. But then everything abruptly disappeared. And around me there was only one negative.At 22, I had surgery on my kidney, but I survived. Then I had severe depression. I remember drinking a sedative and waited, when they will be to change something. I was given a referral to a psychiatric clinic, but I didn't go. It was hard but I overcame this problem.After a time I left my country of Belarus.Now I live in Russia. I worked here until I became worse. The older you get, the harder it is to live with their diseases. But doubly hard when you have a feeling,desire that you are able to do something, to achieve something, but the problems are not allowed to do so fully. Hopefully that black day will remain only in photographs and leave me. To go any further.
