YOUTH

YOUTH focusses on the visibility of a hessian villagen youth – the locality, the country road, the schoolyard, the football ground, the club house. The photographical work challenges identification and group dynamics in local groups, clubs and circles of friends. How strongly the group affiliation of young people is characterised by the rural structures in which they grow up? What influences do social networks, family and traditional customs of the village community? The group portraits and documentary photographs were published as a book and were exhibited in several formats between 2018 and 2019.

The project is based on a three-month artist scholarship in Willingshausen, Germany.
