April 17, from Dailies

I'm lying on the bed. I'm lying on the floor. I'm naked. I'm crying. He's hugging me. He's lying on the bed. He's sleeping. We're in the hotel room. We're looking at the window. At least one picture per day. It's my everyday routine. More than 300 photographs all together, the raw footage of my life over the last nine month. Dailies.
In focus: the relationships of a family, between a husband and a wife. Everyday I open cautiously the borders of our intimate space, everyday I ask myself how far can I go tomorrow. Infertility, weakness, vulnerability, nudity, wrinkles and cellulite, fear of getting old, lack of understanding, low self-esteem. It's a hard work to be a woman, it's a hard work to be a family. Bit by bit our secrets are being revealed, articulated and documented by camera. The process of taking photographs is a research and a performance at the same time. The outcome is a story with an open ending. It's real. It's now.
