'I W A N T T O B E...'
This sequence of images, a story, was inspired by my dearest friend saying "I want to be a tree"; her wearing a cap; her personal story; my personal story; a lovely sunny day; sorrow and happiness; satisfaction and disappoinment.
And, last but not least, by the love for photography.
Through this story, I want to encourage people to live out their dream. By breaking through limitation, one can become who they want to be and not be afraid of anything.
A big thank to Mai Trang for being the model and for giving me a significant inspiration to create this beautiful photographic story.
These images were taken inside 'Dark Chamber', a Camera Obscura installation by Renato Colangelo and 'The Forest', video and sound by Ori Gersht.
