The Vague Sensations Photobook is a result of 13 years of visual research on complicated emotions. It contains 53 best pictures and several short essays put into stylish linen-covered book signed for you by me.
Who is it for? Vague Sensations is for people who believe that emotions are the main thing that makes us feel alive. It’s also for the people who want to have better emotional intelligence and empathy. The book doesn’t shy away from dark and complex topics, and it’s for people who believe that shedding light on your darkness is the only way to true self-love.
How and Why? As a person living with a mood disorder, I always wanted to understand in detail my emotional world to live in peace with it. When I work with a model, I try to establish a strong bond and dive into a common emotional experience to bring real feeling to the picture. To support this feeling, I master a broad range of aesthetics, which I create through light, color, wardrobe, handmade props, location, and post-production of the series.
