TITLE: GAZE

I took these portraits of my friends with a medium-format camera. I asked them to show me with their emotions joy and sadness. Something like the mask that people used to put on when they don’t want to share their fillings. What was interesting for me, it was easier for everyone to show sadness. In addition, when photographing, they did not pay attention to the camera, instead they start sharing with me stories. More often sad.
