Private Story
Domov
A story about my partner’s family home in Slovakia. Story about the relationship with the past and present. The environment once so familiar to Zuzana, which she is still lucky to enjoy, will disappear forever once her grandparents are gone. Therefore, I wanted to preserve it in the photographs. Items and places can tell as much about us and our background as our words. For us, the emigrants who are no longer living in Eastern Europe, the ordinary places have become the extraordinary. Symbols become decorations.
Photography immortalise. Domov means Home and it is my gift to Zuzana's family.
Family photographs - a treasure to be kept.
