“ART WASHES AWAY FROM THE SOUL THE DUST OF EVERYDAY LIFE” – PABLO PICASSO
In late 2016, inspired by the viral story of Jamie Livingston, who created a Polaroid picture every day for 18 years, my mind started wondering. “What would it be like to really take a picture every single day?” The question crept on me every single day. The challenge of taking a camera out every single day, and finding something worth shooting didn’t seem so daunting at first. I set myself to take a picture every single day of 2017, from the first to the last day, and experience myself what this challenge really meant. It was a good excuse to force me to take my camera out every single day, and also a good way of pushing the boundaries of my photography. A documentary project of my daily life, a vision into my eye and my brain as a way of understanding what makes me tick.
I won’t lie, it wasn’t easy. Some days the results were horrid, and some others the results were pretty fascinating. In any case, I managed to go through 365 days with 365 pictures, all taken between the time I woke up, and before I went to bed. Every single day.
NOTE: Not all pictures were taken with my camera, some were taken with my phone, or even with the phone or camera of a friend. I posted every single picture on my Instagram Account and this was the result.
