The images i present here, had to do with my own subjectivity; are images which open in my mind 'another space' for all the forms that are included, ending to form a multiplicity of becomings.
All these images introduce a freeing play of forms: imagination applies forms upon others; always seeing relationships between them.
I apologize for not remembering the books from which they were abstracted. All these images had been collected during the whole period of my research and had been stored in my mind for long time.

The following images were taken from a book concerning the art of the mentally disturbed people. All the drawings published in this book were made by people who had been considered from the society as outsiders; as insane. The first one has the title: 'Man of a genious' while the second one ' self potrait of a megalomeniac, naked among women, ejecting worlds'; both from Lombroso.

All these images acted as my inspiration; each one seperately describing a lived experience, all of them together creating" a portrait"of a person: the moving away of one 'state' to another.
