MUTTER.
This is another of Olaf Hauschulz’ extended projects which spans across many years.
In 1996 Olaf had to initiate his mothers treatment, against her will, and had her admitted into a mental institution.
He was afraid she was going to commit suicide.
This extreme situation created very strong feelings of responsibility and connection in him.
He photographed her at least once every week until her death in 2017.
He photographed her at least once every week until her death in 2017.
On the one hand he wanted to understand her feelings in relation to the disease.
On the other hand he wanted to create a visual tribute of significant memories.
Four years after her death he has started the process of editing this body of work.
