From the series - The Dark River Returning to a place I have known for a long time – combined with reliving my own memories. Painful sense of loss. The Oder River flows quietly and darkly, full of memories of itself and the people on its banks. Slowly like the river, life makes its way through the plains and carries my own family history with it. The sky is reflected in him, even at night. Dark shallows remain hidden. In 2020-23 I retraced my childhood memories along the Oder using an old Hasselblad camera and 120 roll film. An almost fictional diary was created.
