Operation
This project was made with film, an enlarger and photographic paper.
This series represents one of my biggest childhood fears: surgeries. As a child I've had problems with my toes, due to the fact that my nails wouldn't grow normally. As a result I've had 3 operations. Surgery quickly became a childhood trauma for me, causing the fear of needles, surgical knives and so on.
I photographed the man with a medium format camera, then took pictures of the objects using 35mm film. Having the pictures on film, I stacked them onto each other, put them into an enlarger, then exposed them on photographic paper.
The nails and the needle are Rayographs.
Thank you Zsombor, Mira, Endre and Krisztián for helping.
