People Today

Photographing the street, I discovered that I very much like shop windows, and mannequins in particular. I see them as real people with feelings, emotions, emptiness, shallowness. I see in them the people of today. People who love, people that are sad or lost, trapped or perhaps free? I like to create stories with them. This story is that of us, the people on Earth today. And the story leads to one question: what does the future has in store for us? “The irony of life Is our greatest fear is to forget, Yet it's the only certain fate That anything has ever met. We know one day our earth Will find itself victim to time, That nothing will be left To tell of your story or mine, And still through life we rush Scrambling for something to remember, Perish the thought that ash be ash And not the memory of an ember.” Erin Hanson, Remember to forget
