The project thematizes the author's confrontation with personal experience of trauma and questions the role of photography and its (in) possibility of representing traumatic events and their consequences on the individual. The family table, on a symbolic level, testifies to the dynamics of human relations within the family and on a conceptual level it can be compared with the autopsy table. By reminiscing about traumatic events, as well as subsequently constructing situations from his personal past, he forensically approaches everyday objects as witnesses that influenced the construction of his identity. In this way, he’s opening the space of imagination and the possibility of changing the perception of the family home.
