“Be still my bleeding heart”
From Urbanity, Part I: Antimatter

When I finished working on Antimatter I thought of it as the ending of a story, and yet I named it Urbanity, Part I. I had a feeling the story has to continue — as if it is out there in the urban streets, waiting to be discovered.

For months I have struggled with the question how the story should continue, but I found nothing but dead ends. At the same time, visual fragments started to find their way into my Urbanity folder. I had no idea what they mean or what story they are trying to tell me.

It was only when I found the last fragment that all the pieces suddenly aligned in place and the story revealed itself. It was indeed the continuation of the story I thought ended exactly one year before.

Urbanity, Part II: Singularity - is now live at Warehouse Zero (where dreams don’t come true).

    I loved it!
    Did you “plant” any “props” in the photos?

    • Hi Ilan,

      Thanks for visiting!

      The answer is No: the scenes are untouched - captured just as I found them. In general I don’t stage the scenes, but only post process the photos and I never add elements from other photos. There’s only one photo in Urbanity, Part I where I changed some of the text on an obituary.
