Description

after 5 years of not going to school (or outside) , i entered the first art class of my life. everyone else already started on big projects so the teacher just gave me a quick assignment, "draw a skyline". so i did! and she liked it so much , she said i was one of the best in the class. the next week everyone had the same assignment, to take 3 pictures using a prop from a bucket of toys. everyone else rushed to said bucket so i didnt really have much of a choice, and i ended up with a duplo man. i crushed him under a rock and i put him facedown in a puddle, and yet again, the teacher loved it. she said no one else understood the assignment as much as i did, refering not to the macabre scenes but rather my way of photographing, sure, but still! this was 5 years ago now but to this day it stills makes me feel so confident, that at least there was something i could do right, even though i was struggling so much with every other class at this time.
