Originally it just started as a film project. I was really interested in the concept of creating a whole image out of a contact sheet so that every frame had to be calculated and be in the exact right spot for everything to work, so these two images consist of 42 half frame images. It eventually evolved into a subject very close to me, gender issues.
´Adam & Eve´ is my response to the societal gender roles we are forced to oblige from the moment we are born and i fully believe that this the core to the problems we face. I have an almost 8 year old son and i see how destructive these roles are on him as well as on me and all the women i know, big or small. We should all feel free to be ourselves. We still deserve love, acceptance and first and foremost equality. These images have been showcased at two separate exhibitions and i've received so much wonderful feedback, but i´ve also posted them on Facebook and got reported and my account has been "frozen" because of them. But see there´s a twist, i censored the genital parts (even though i dislike cencorship it's a part of Facebook´s rules) but i still got reported and not because of the male nipples, no but because you can see the female nipples. The issues crystallize in just that fact.
