Taking a walk with Hecate

Introduction:

This work serves as an image essay on addiction and the act of getting high. Writings written from the perspective of a person afflicted with addiction are also featured. 

Production:

This work consists of a set of photos and writings that show the perspective of an addict on their journey to get high.

The photos were taken late at night/early in the morning and follow a single perspective, trying to immerse the viewer in this world and emulate the thought process and emotions of the person who is suffering with addiction.

Conclusion:

I like how the spreads turned out but I definitely want to gather more photos and writings about the topic and perhaps make a much longer book.

I would be excited to experiment with different paper qualities and ways of printing/displaying the work, such as large scale prints, video and sound pieces to accompany the book.
