Martin

18 October 2011

Tilburg, the Netherlands

Martin (18) is the photographer’s half-brother. He returned to stay with their mother after living with his father for ten years. He was jobless, had no qualifications, and had spent time in a youth shelter. The photographer, who had had no contact with Martin over the previous decade, decided to use her camera to help get to know him again.

Martin (18 ans), le demi-frère de la photographe, est retourné vivre chez leur mère après avoir vécu dix ans chez son père. Il était sans emploi, sans qualification et avait passé un certain temps dans un foyer pour jeunes. La photographe, qui n’avait pas eu de contacts avec Martin depuis dix ans, a décidé de se servir de son appareil photo pour réapprendre à le connaître.
