After the period working with Seb, I wanted to focus on personal stories of sick people.
So I decided to paint observational portraits of them based on long term observation with private interviews.
I could conduct this project with 5 models. I wanted to understand one’s overall life and I wanted to portray one’s pain and struggle.
Before I decided the images, I’ve discussed with each model and I reflected their ideas too. This process took a long time, including time painting.
