This year, I was granted exclusive and privileged access to the closed archives of the memorials Sachsenhausen and Ravensbrück to photograph never before exhibited artifacts that were found at theses camps after liberation or were donated by the survivor or their families. Working with world renowned German Historian Dr Robert Sommer, Using the original Nazi SS records, he was able to research each personal belonging back to its original owner and consequently to their fate.

We like to think that we have been able to rescue the voices of the dead with our images and with our historically based texts. And to give the silent an opportunity to speak to us once again with collective voices.
