我拍摄的照片反映了我多年的抑郁

Collection of images in which I wanted to depict the internal world of solitary people who symbolize our own unconscious states. The work is inspired by the years I went through depression, where I wanted to reflect human experiences that would allow the viewer to reflect on their own journey.

我想用这些图片来描绘孤独的人的内心世界，它们象征着我们自己的无意识状态。这幅作品的灵感来自于我经历抑郁的那些年，在那里我想反映人类的经历，让观众反思他们自己的旅程。

I began exploring photography about 12 years ago; around the same time, I faced depression for the first time in my life as a way to express my state of mind. Photography allowed me to escape into a different world, the one which I was creating, a place and a story that was lead by me, not that I was led by. But after a few months, I fell deep into the arms of depression and lost all passion for the medium.

大约12年前，我开始探索摄影;大约在同一时间，我人生中第一次面对抑郁，把它作为一种表达我精神状态的方式。摄影让我逃到一个不同的世界，一个我正在创造的世界，一个由我来领导的地方和故事，而不是被领导。但几个月后，我陷入了深深的沮丧，对媒体失去了所有的热情。

In 2014, when I had come out on the other side of the depression and was pursuing a BFA degree in Photography in San Francisco, I picked up the medium again and began to unconsciously explore themes of depression in my work. Everything I created reflected on the years I was living with depression, inspired by psychology, surrealism, and the Scandinavian landscapes that I grew up around.

2014年，当我从抑郁的另一边走出来，在旧金山攻读摄影专业的BFA学位时，我又重新拾起了这个媒介，开始在我的作品中无意识地探索抑郁的主题。我创作的一切都反映了我与抑郁相伴的那些年，灵感来自于心理学、超现实主义和我成长的斯堪的纳维亚风景。

From there on it has been a medium I use to document our internal world focusing on themes inspired by psychology, surrealism and our unconscious mind.

从那时起，它就成为了我用来记录我们内心世界的媒介，我们的内心世界聚焦于那些受到心理学、超现实主义和潜意识启发的主题。

My work is very personal to me, and has been a sort of therapy to combat my own emotions and experiences I’ve had over the years, yet I try to make it as anonymous as possible in order for it to speak to each spectator that will view it, so they can reflect back on their own journey in life through interacting with the internal world of the figures shown in my work.

我的工作对我来说是非常个人化的，而且一直是一种治疗，以对抗我自己的情绪和经验，多年来，我一直试图使它尽可能匿名，以便它可以对每一个观看它的观众来述说，他们可以通过与我作品中所展示的人物的内在世界的互动来反思他们自己的人生历程。
