Are shadows happy when they dance?

Are shadows happy when they dance? is a book that I have printed and bound, which introduces to a journey into my introspection reflecting emotions related to separation, grief, acceptance, recovery. The story unfolds through four chapters reflecting the seasons in order to convey the idea of a prolonged trauma relative to separation from beloved persons and the cyclic process which it takes to accept and recover from it. The project is an attempt to analyse my feelings, searching metaphors to associate the pain with other existent entities, mainly inanimate in the most quotidian moments, which through photography and its components such as lights, shadows, sizes and colours seem to reflect emotions I experienced in first hand in order to accept and embrace grief and frustration and other sensations.
