Statement of Intent

Shallow depth of field is one of many effects that a photographer can use, but for me it is the way I experience the world.

My vision has been permanently blurred by a rare disease called Presumed Ocular Histoplasmosis Syndrome. This has caused scars on my retinas to form and has resulted in loss of vision.

In this series the viewer is given a glimpse into my restricted world with damaged retinas, each image is a split between a ‘normal’, expected vision and mine, which is missing the depth that makes everyone else’s world complete and safe.

This is my view of Amsterdam.
