I’ve always been interested in documenting people, places and objects on the margins of everyday life. On my way to specific places or to meetings planned beforehand, I see objects to photograph. Each has its own form and at the same time resembles something else. To make sense of this fragmentariness, I imagine that everything fits to each other. I match spaces, people and objects, though in reality nothing connects them. I invent relationships and pretend to know what’s important, emphasizing forms and shapes.
