It Takes Courage To Leave

For this series the photographer went rambling through her immediate surroundings. She realised how much the landscape was composed of a variety of rooms, in each of which different animals, insects and plants lived. Boundaries and thresholds between rooms are very attractive places and when stepped over fascinating worlds might reveal themselves. But to leave a familiar room is perhaps one of the most courageous actions one can perform. From the day we go to school for the first time and leave home we keep leaving rooms. And one day we realise that we are also tied to mental rooms.
