International award-winning series
In the 2020 competition of the Budapest International Foto Awards, I won a bronze grade and a 3rd place in the ‘Family’ category with these series with a personal tone, made during the spring quarantine of 2020, documenting our own family life.
Living in a large family is never boring. But as a result of quarantined coexistence, everything gets really huge. The emotions are intense, the interaction is strong, what I exhale, the others inhale it.
The opening image of the series has also appeared on Sixfeetapart. A self-portrait in the bath. The only place I have the opportunity to meet myself as a mother with a large family. Hello, anxiety and fears…
Everything grew powerful: joy as well as sorrow. Shouting, anger, tears. Dancing, laughter. What is really important appeared before our eyes: how are you, how am I. How can we work together? We learn to face anxiety, to express fears, to let tears flow. The task: to love. My life, myself, my family. Today. It doesn’t matter what tomorrow brings.
The series is available on BIFA website.
