”Solitude” 2002-2005.

Solitude vjen si nje grup imazhesh te thjeshta te jetes se perditshme, qe gjithmone harrohen dhe lihen pas. Autorja prezanton dinamiken e historise se saj, duke treguar elemente te zhvedosjeve te herepashershme, qe kane me vete kujtime personale, hapesira, objekte qe sjellin shenja te eksperincave te saj. Ato jane nje kronike kujtimesh te fotografuara aty-ketu ne ato vende, qe per artisten ne nje periudhe te caktuar kohe kane qene shtepi.

Solitude comes as a group of simple images of nowadays which are always forgot and left behind.  The author presents the dynamic of her story telling often, shifting elements, carrying personal memories, space, and objects which are signs of her experiences.
They are a chronic of photographic memories, there and then, at those places which have been a home for her.
