This Bird Had Flown
This Bird had flown describes the limits of the human condition, emphasizing how man finds himself at the mercy of “clouds and winds” whenever he longs for the stars, or more simply for something he cannot have. The title of the work is taken from a line in the Beatles’ song “Norwegian Wood.” More generally, it is an expression that in English translates the situation where the person you are looking for has run away, gone away. I was going through a complex period where I could no longer look at my photographs, I was disgusted by them. I felt lost. So I decided to start from scratch, with a small 10-euro analog camera. The images I took I didn’t develop so I couldn’t see them. It was like doing rehabilitation after something was broken in me. Once I felt I was “cured,” I developed all the rolls and this is what resulted.
