At Home
This is the series of photography of my own family.
I think that any family have each story and there is also a past in this family, too. If I let you know about it, you might see this work in a different way.
It's been 17 years since we started living at this home. Before that, we had been forced to leave out due to house rent nonpayment, and had our life in a car for a while. I was 8 years old at the time. And then, the children were placed at children's nursing home and infant home. After two and a half year since my family broke up, we could live together again but I have a remembrance of that we'd been poor for a while.
Viewed apart, each person has each past. For example, got bullied, secluded and a bad behavior. Those pasts and my family's history were intertwined with each other, that makes my family's relationship and our lifestyle. The plainly, human, charming family is the subject which satisfies my character. I realized that this is the place I depart and arrive.
I think there are also some people who sympathize with this, some people who deny. What do they sympathize with? How they deny? I hope my photos would be able to make people think about their own family and happiness.
