Omschrijving
What if the person you trusted the most ended up in prison? It is hard to imagine that a close relative would commit a serious crime. In Family Stranger, Wiosna van Bon (NL) shows the various ways in which families deal with the situation. They are suddenly confronted with ethical questions and will have to assess their relationship with their criminal relative. While the lives of these families continue, the detainee enters a kind of time capsule, being imprisoned. The purpose of this book is to create awareness of the struggles that these families endure. Just like the criminal relative, the family is often socially convicted as well, with a risk of (further) seclusion from society. Therefore, both adults and children experience the topic as taboo.
Wiosna van Bon (1992) is a half Polish, half Dutch photographer who graduated as a documentary photographer at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague (NL). She grew up around socialistic and activist ideals and this has influenced her work. The human being is always in the centre of her projects. She is interested in the lonely individual, separated groups and inequality – specifically in those who, despite everything, preserve. Van Bon treats her photos like poems in which rhythm, metaphors and symbolism are key factors. Currently, she is working as a freelance photographer, both on self-initiated and commissioned projects.
