Valentin Marco: Disgrace

“I photographed my path and my feelings honestly and instinctively”, - says Valentin Marco about his series Disgrace. And, indeed, you can feel it with your guts.

"Disgrace is a selection of pictures taken between 2013 and 2017, when nights were longer than days. A mix of brightness and sorrow that I was strained to capture. I photographed my path and my feelings honestly and instinctively.

This era is now gone but the pictures remain."
