I Just Wanna Make You Sweat (2024-2025)
For I Just Wanna Make You Sweat I asked people from my surroundings to exercise to their personal absolute limit.
Beyond the physical fatigue, I am interested in the dynamics between model and photographer. Is there a shift in the power balance? How much can we ask of one another?
The photographs search for the moment when something internal breaks through to the surface. Exhaustion becomes a threshold, a loss of control that reveals what might otherwise stay hidden.
