This striking and thought-provoking piece features a skeletal figure clad in an ethereal wedding gown, juxtaposed against a human figure whose face is obscured by bandages. The muted tones of the environment accentuate the surreal nature of the scene, creating a stark contrast between the life-like attire of the skeleton and the enigmatic presence of the man beside it. The dimly lit background enhances the haunting atmosphere, evoking themes of mortality and the complexities of love. This artwork invites viewers to reflect on the deeper connections between life and death, as well as the nature of commitment, depicted through the intimate pose of the two figures holding hands.
This artwork would be a striking addition to modern, eclectic, or minimalist interiors, particularly in spaces meant for contemplation or dialogue, such as a study, gallery wall, or an artist's studio. Its unique and controversial subject matter can provoke conversation, making it ideal for creative environments or private collections that appreciate bold statements.

Image from my "The Dark Room" series - I got my first inspiration for this series while listening to my favourite metal band, Sentenced. It evolved to a collection of images of what a dark mind might look like from the inside. All the destructive thoughts that circulate in your brain and feelings that bring you down. The dark room inside of your own head. After I began to put images online, comments that said some of these images remind them of their own thoughts started to appear. Especially feelings that the covid-19 isolation has brought to the surface for many people. This series continues my work on images that handle mental health issues. In 2009 I was forced to retire from daily work because of depression. Since then, photography has played a significant role in my life as a therapy. Many people might think that images as dark as these get you down, but it's the contrary. And here we come back to the metal band Sentenced, whose songs started this series. They often had very dark and touching lyrics. After the band had retired, I read that several fans told them that their songs saved their lives.
