Conceptual photographic work with young women between the ages of 16 and 19 on the theme of body, identity, boundaries and life. Diáne Zillmer worked within this photo project over several weeks with young women with difficult social backgrounds and the confrontation with themselves using the medium of photography. Not every time there was photography, sometimes just sharing time and planning how and where to shoot. By learning a basic knowledge of photography, stereotypical and trendy ideals in social networks, one's own position and digital content were questioned.

The participants use the medium of photography to reflect positively on their own bodies, their own positions and stereotypical images of women. A silent journey about life, feelings and dreams in visual language. The complete project find here (german only).
