Hey, good morning, are you still there for me?

The folding album unfolds is a dialogue.
The authors took photographs for each other to get
a glimpse of the other’s living space despite the distance;
to experience their never realized desires and illusions behind the
facade of a story they write for each other.
The image pairs and the passages from letters and text messages
reflect certain conditions of human relationships; restrained,
yearning to unfold.
The backside of the folding album is empty.
The relationship having ended, the former, intensifying image-text
dialogue calmed down to a single monologue.
The remained image pairs are freely interpretable through un/refolding;
communication in time loses its dimensions: words of approach and
alienation may intertwine; opening and closing images may be
juxtaposed.
