About the series:
It's about time, the past and the present. All people in these pictures are strangers from the past, most probably dead for a long time. Now they all come together in the present, like ghostly appearance on different locations and cities.
For these series, I combined two photographs - one picture I took with my own self-made anamorphic pinhole camera and one old vintage photograph. The pinhole images are all 6x6 film photographs which I developed on my own and scanned the negatives. Then I also scanned the portraits. At the end, I combined these pictures using photoshop and added some 'ghostly' effects.
