Today, I would like to share a project by Ola O. Smit called 1/2 hour in which I took a part. Pictures are accompanied  by a short text, which is my account of this experience.

A big thank you to Ola for allowing me to share the pictures -




My last day in Canrobert street

My last day in Canrobert street... after a couple of years. My room is empty and my mind - full of thoughts. Changes, endings, beginnings etc. I am getting inpatient. Being glued to the chair does not feel easy... Unwillingly, I start to pose. I am waiting for another clicks to happen. I imagine that I interact with the camera... If only I could stand up and begin to move freely through my room... Being glued to the chair feels like a limitation... Time passes so slowly... After a while my tension gradually goes away and tireness takes its place... I am giving up on figuring out what is the right thing to do in this situation... I am waiting for my time on the chair to finish.
