DESCRIPTION
EIN|BLICK - The Story of You.
On my travels, I would contact strangers, go into their homes or places of belonging and photograph their lives and story. My subjects agree to welcome someone they never met before and expose themselves to a very vulnerable experience - being shot in your home surrounded by the sum of your parts. They begin to see the shrines they've created in their life through the lens of an artist. The things they cherish reflected back to an outside audience. This could be compared to opening your house as a gallery - every artifact a piece to a greater story - the story of you.
Philippe showed me around his childhood home, a big Parisian apartment now empty of people but full of memories and a few things left behind by his aged and fading parents. A melancholic and wistful atmosphere shaped the images.
