separation wall 4 Photograph

Verf. uses his pocket camera as a photographic scrapbook of his life and thoughts............ This is not Art photography, in fact, despite of the photographic surface, this isn't photography.............. It's the need to survive and to capture life and thoughts before they explode. ..............Verf. hasn't the time to make compositions or to think about techniques, the subjects are passing by at the speed that he hardly can capture them............. His photographic production is huge. ............That makes it impossible to judge them. ...........While judging them you are judging life............... The literal space becomes a metaphor for a social context nearly one hundred years after T.S.Eliot.Verf.s photographs are confronting and autobiographical and show the inside of daily life.
