Where the weird things are (2010-...)

I was 8 and was blessed with a camera since already several years. I used to shoot friends at birthday parties and snails on flowers in the garden. I took photo of everything without any goal. Developed months after I shot them, I looked at the pictures being disappointed : they were not like the moments I remembered. I remembered to see monsters, aliens or ghosts, but none of them appeared on the photos, once developed. With the help of the journal I wrote during my childhood and a digital pen, I decided to repair all the mistakes that obviously happened during the development of the pictures - or maybe all these were just dreams? Work in progress.
