Astronauts in Tin is part of a photographic series about cosplay. Within the context of adulthood, cosplay is not simply a form of escapism; it also serves as a stage to reclaim identity and personal freedom. In this way, cosplay reflects on how identity is shaped and limited by societal expectations, functioning as a subtle form of resistance against these structures. By pushing the boundaries of what is considered “adult,” it blurs the line between reality and the surreal, revealing that both are ultimately conceptual constructs.

The sisters of Augustinessen receive only 15 euros in pocket money per year. The objects they buy reflect personal desire and identity within the community. Religious communities are often perceived from the outside as uniform or homogeneous. By photographing these possessions, individuality within the monastery can be shown.
In consumer culture, identity is frequently communicated through what people buy, own, and display. Within the monastery, this dynamic is largely absent. Instead, minimal possessions can take on a different significance and reflect intimacy, desire, and selfhood within a shared communal structure.

A photograph in the corner of the house showed a little girl wearing two blue bows. I asked Wiljo, the woman I helped maintain the house, about it. It was her, she told me, sixty years ago.
Wiljo was 60 years old. She remembered the bows and described herself as beautiful in them. Knowing that I am a photographer, we decided to recreate the portrait.

This photograph is part of Legs, a series made in Ukraine that reflects on the ethics of looking at war. In images of conflict, the body is often fragmented - turned into symbol, gesture, or wound. The series questions how images of conflict can aestheticize suffering and, in doing so, distance viewers from the human reality they depict.
