"Burning down childhood finding light" is a journey through my childhood. When in 2022 my parents burned my childhood buildings with a excavator - all my childhood memories came back: the good ones and the dark ones. When I photographed the sucidide room of my uncle - extreme light came through the window - just before the buildings pulled down and in this moment I realised the light of underwater photographs I am working on since seven years in my hometown area is the searching of light for my childhood. I went for serval years to the same pond and photgraphed through all seasons the underwater light. Now it was time to combine this understanding.
