This is a long-term project called "Loneliness is a state of mind". This is something I mean to develop over the years with different people in different set ups. I've concluded myself that loneliness is something I'm going to have to live with for the rest of my life, whether it is for long periods of time or for two seconds. I want to know how people around me think about it, if they ever do.

This blog is the result of this flickr group and the photographers I talk to. We are all imperfect, and it is because of those imperfections that we make the most of ourselves. I want pictures that reflect this concept of loneliness the way it is for you, your friends or your models. Get out and make it unique, explore what it means to you to have nothing but yourself in an unlimited space of land. This blog will be updated bimonthly, and only a few selected photos and authors will appear on the printed issue that will come out in the Fall of 2012.

no conozco la historia del fuego.
Pero creo que mi soledad debería tener alas.”

nor do I know the history of fire.

Can Dagarslani has something very personal to say. From Turkey, the photographer breathes light, shadows and silences. There is deep loneliness in those voids without sound, and Dagarslani makes it very clear.  
Can Dagarslani will be in the first printed issue of Loneliness, Fall 2012.

We yet have to understand each other individually. Few of us give ourselves the chance to hang out with ourselves enough to know what we are all about.
Sara woke up indifferent to the idea that the world had disappeared behind her, and made herself home, in this nowhere land, where only her should be in touch with reality. 
Dan would look back, only to see himself immersed in his own escape to the greens. 
This is a blog about us, and yourself. We are coming from this group and we hope you contact me soon.
