statement
My story sounds old and new,
depressing and promising, suicidal and creative
and
strangely enough
at the same time
by questioning its own possible existence,
by investigating parts of our most primitive fears,
by emerging from the aesthetics of a contemporary electronic observation of ourselves,
it feels absolutely distant,
familiar
and
haunting all at once.
