I started this project with the theme 'vanitas,' which is Latin for 'emptiness.' The theme often revolves around transience. From this theme, I came up with the idea to depict depression and loneliness in a photo series. It is something I had not experienced myself, but still wanted to draw more attention to, as it is much more common among young people nowadays. The digital world we live in now facilitates easy online connections. Yet, 'real' contact seems to be suffering as a result. Loneliness is on the rise, while we all hide behind our little screens.
