Do you remember my series Selbstportrait from 2018? In case you don't, here is a nice article about it on iGnant.com from the same year. Well, as you can't know, the series was actually planned to be an ongoing series and I always dreamed about continuing it all over the world. So when I had the chance to repeat the series in Darmstadt at AfkV last year, I was really happy. However, I wasn't really content with the result. Something felt off and I couldn't really tell why.
|
I loved the part where I would wear your clothes, but I hated my long hair (on the final images) and the fact that my trousers ripped during the shooting felt like a sign to stop.
|
Being in Cairo, the dream of continuing this series worldwide struck me again and a few weeks ago, I decided to make another attempt, but to slightly change the concept.
|
|
First, the new series will be called 'portraits' and not 'Selbstportrait', as I'm no longer trying to portray myself.
|
|
Second, I will only wear the participant's clothing and I will not ask them to war mine, as I find this more interesting.
|
Third, this really is intended as an ongoing series and I after Cairo, I want to continue it all over the world.
|
However, this time I want to do things right, so I would like to photograph using two professional travel flashes, which unfortunately I can't afford on my own.
|
That's why I have started a crowdfunding campaign and I would like to ask you for your support – either financially or simply by sharing the campaign with your friends and family.
|
The campaign video is in German, but I have translated all text in English.
|
A big thank you to everyone who already added to the funding goal of 2500 € and those 66 patrons who continue to support me with 1 € per month ❤️
