Luna Park series: The photographs were taken in Slovenia in a small fishing village on the Adriatic Sea.
In this series I focused primarily on the opposition between Luna Park's sad and austere side, and the magic it exudes at night. I wanted to represent the strange harmony emanating from its rides, which are set on a deserted wasteland surrounded by worn down buildings and an old factory chimney.
Throughout the series I show two completely different sides of Luna Park and bring them to a state of equilibrium. Seemingly abandoned, some of its attractions are worn out and dismantled. Then, as the night falls, Luna Park comes alive and reveals its magic.
