TORN

Homeless people have been torn out of their normal lives at some point. The step to do this may be short. Life gets cracks that steadily grow if they cannot be healed. The lives of the homeless are tough and involve constant wandering. Many live in isolation or start fragile special-purpose communities to protect themselves. Hardly anything of what they once knew and loved is left. They live behind a wall or curtain. They start to hide. Women in particular try to cover up their homelessness. In this series, I work on these aspects of covering up, hiding, semi-transparency and a perspective that is out of balance.
