Hidden Life

Our way of life is becoming faster and faster. Due to technologic innovations we have the ability to travel and transport goods and products all over the world.
This convenience instead of providing us with more free time and happiness captivates us in a vicious cycle of working long hours and consuming more and more. We live alienated from the nature and we shrug off the simplicity of life. 

The project “Hidden life” is about people that are trapped in the urban way of life. I capture their portrait in the city environment in which they live and are familiar with; and subsequently I follow them in a natural environment where I observe their reactions and feelings.
