I Found These Moldy Old Slides On The Streets, I Enjoy Rescuing Memories.

ADVERTISEMENT

Found on the street, selected, re-arranged, scanned and edited into a new photographic series. Landscapes dissolving into blurred abstract colors, a lady walking in nature cornered by mold and dust. Personal archives are handled with care and saved carefully over the years. At some point someone decided that saving this memory was not important anymore. This serie tells the story of eroded memory’s formed together with emotions, changing and blurring details after passing of years. Memory gaps are filled by new ones.
