Secrets: The First Words of a New Series

  

[Click image for a larger version]

Dearest friend,

I’ve begun a new series. It’s about secrets and parts of ourselves that we don’t often share. The photo shoots are conversations. They give me an opportunity to ask friends things that I’d normally be reluctant or too shy to ask about. Their fears, their sexuality, their past, their bodies.

While they talk, I photograph them. 

The purpose of the series is not to reveal their secrets. In fact, my intention is to keep the contexts opaque and to create more questions than answers. My hope is that perhaps it will inspire you to ask your friends for their stories, their secrets. 

Yours,

Balthazar

P.S. Would you tell me a secret?

A Peek into My Letters

 I encourage you to request your own for the full experience, but as a little teaser, here are the envelopes and polaroids from three letters I’ve sent out in the past week. Maybe, just maybe, I’ll post an actual letter I’ve written some day, too…

Title: Secretly I Wanted to Watch the Whole Thing

Title: Pretty, Blurry Girl

Title: I Think We Should Keep Our Eyes Open and See Everything There Is to Be Seen

See how it falls back on itself
