Read Between The Lines

2004

It was a time when I collected all my family's precious artifacts - old photos, books, pocket icons, etc. One of the oldest books I inherited from my grandmother was a 1940s edition of Dante's "Inferno". It was a magical and mysterious piece from the past, full of traces of the people who read it. This book, as well as a number of photographs of now forgotten people, inspired me to create my own fictional love story. Torn pages, a stranger's signature, coffee stains, old family photos and objects became a story without words.
