Abstract(s)

Research on contemporary photography served as a basis for this project that revolves around autoportraits, as a base, and documentary photography that provides context to it. Touching personal questions like solitude, detachment, and day to day routine, these series of photographs are then the ground for telling not just one story, but rather trigger different meanings and toughts in people who explore them, looking at them as universal questions rather than isolated personal documentation. This classification of photographs being both a mirror and a window to the world ties this project tightly to the contemporary art photography discourse. The series is made sometimes paying homage to some of the important personas of the contemporary photographic practice or following some of the most destinguishable “subgenres”. The overall feel, as well as the style of all the individual photographs, is calm and unintrusive, as opposed to most of the things we are presented to in our life, where being loud is considered the only way to get heard. The final product of this project is a photography book, specially designed and handmade to present the photography series.
