Bedroom Tales
Bedroom Tales is a long-term photographic project focused on Generation Y, approached through the intimate and transitional space of the bedroom.
The work examines the formative tension between personal aspiration and structural instability experienced by a generation shaped by economic precarity, social pressure, and shifting definitions of success. Rather than constructing a collective portrait based on stereotypes or sociological claims, the project unfolds through individual encounters, allowing vulnerability and uncertainty to surface without narration.
The bedroom functions as both a physical and emotional site: a place of temporary settlement, projection, and retreat. Often provisional, it becomes a space where identity is rehearsed and negotiated, where personal objects, images, and gestures reveal attempts to hold continuity within instability.
The subjects—mostly strangers contacted through online networks—are photographed in collaboration, with attention to how they choose to present themselves within this private environment. The images resist spectacle and dramatization, favoring a restrained visual language that emphasizes presence, intimacy, and suspension.
Bedroom Tales operates as an open archive of a generation in transition, questioning how belonging, ambition, and self-perception are formed under conditions of uncertainty. The project does not seek to define who this generation is, but to hold space for who they are becoming.
