Murk Schaafsma created a special photo series titled "MIJN geZICHT". For this project, he took portrait photographs of people with eye diseases. He engaged in conversations with the subjects to understand their vision and then visualized their sight. Clear, honest, and moving. Admire and listen to the 20 portraits and stories at muSEEum.
In the series, each set of photos consists of a portrait and the same photo showing how the person sees themselves in the mirror. Listen to the stories the photos tell through the small speakers.
The photos show that two people with the same eye condition can have completely different visual experiences. The images encourage dialogue between people with visual impairments and their surroundings.
Made possible by the Oogfonds. Photos taken by Hans Roggen.
