This project came to fruition through working on a different project. While working on it, I was in a weird mood that feels too peculiar to describe, but I can say that it was a mixture of anger and disappointment. Anger from trying endlessly to take a photo that I thought to be worthwhile and anger from feeling like I had failed. When I thought more and more about the fact that I wasn’t coming up with good photos which soon led to me feeling disappointed in myself for not being patient with myself. I think some of these feelings tend to a sort of distance and emptiness that is present in the photos which is essentially the concept of this piece is: Feelings of emptiness and loneliness in places that typically don’t feel that way.
