Home Away From Home is a photographic journey around the question of mourning. How does one go on living with grief, memories and the present?

It’s a first attempt, which combines fragments of photographic and textual memories. In this autofictional form, it is all about this fragile balance, the tension between distance and closeness, the feelings, memories of what we want to keep as well as what we are trying to abandon. Familiar places become painful places, while the elsewhere becomes a land of welcome.

What emerges are bits and pieces: moments, textures and absences. A kind of emotional residue that needs no complete story to exist, where coherence is deliberately fractured to evoke the instability of memory.
