'the drama on the stage within' is as much a meditation as a gently ironic look on the way we humans tend to live our lives according to stories that are told in our minds.
'the drama on the stage within' is a collection of dialogues between photographs and short free-form texts.
Each dialogue conveys musings on the way our lives are governed by the stories we are told and the tales we tell. It is an occasion to meditate on, or consider with gentle irony, our small myths and our big fables.
When words and pictures are brought together, it often happens that one controls the other (a caption dictates the meaning of the image) or that one comes first (a picture inspires a poem).
It is not the case here: neither are texts an explanation of the image, nor are photographs simple illustrations.
Having each found their own way into existence, they meet on the page and respond to each other: the words influence the reading of the photograph, the image in turn affects the meaning of the text. With each pairing, you are invited into a conversation that pokes gentle fun at the weirdness of us human beings.
