A DAY [Women of 30 years]

Everyday is full of things to do and meaningful in its own way. When I look around there are a lot of other possibility for life that I didn’t chose. Just like the old saying “the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence”. Happy, yet with just a tinge of sadness. One day for women 30 years of age.

If a photograph captures a single moment, then those moments linked together form the passage of time. Women the same age, thinking and feeling similar things, living in the same time: in every way, fiction that is nearly non-fiction, a silent, non-motion picture.

Last year it suddenly occurred to me that I was 29. I was at a crossroads. In both my personal and professional life I felt impatient, anxious. I yearned desperately to search for something new, for something I had never done before. That fateful year I turned to photography. Life has never been free of worry since then, but the many possibilities inherent in photography sustain me through troubled times.
