Thesis: I am telling you something that I don’t want to tell

My blended family, a mother, father, stepmother, stepfather, two brothers, and four stepbrothers. This is the family I am part of as the youngest, “the sister”. Lot’s of men, relations, titles, groups, bonds, feelings, identities and different behaviour inside this group. Most people would see it as two separate family’s. I am living a big part of my life inside and in-between these two family’s and in my eyes both are part of one group. Bringing them together during these portraits shows the separation and unity.
