Doll Star started with the inspiration given me by some photos about very small
figurines being used in real places and situations. I had some ideas
and found the old doll in my mom's house, I was instantly seduced by
her tragic potential. These shots come from a personal work which is, in full version, a 21 picture series and text. The shooting took about a week, which was necessary to give that chronological entity. Like in the movie creation process, there are outtakes and a lot of scenes which didn't make it. The selection of the photos took some months of maturing and reflection. I had to let the idea rest a bit in my mind for my intention to be less influenced by the freshness and the hurry of the beginning. This is actually a luxury we can have with personal work, to take time, time to grow, time to forget our pictures and watch them like a sculptor in front of a stone, ready to make his story. |
