Soft Poetry are a series of four photos, pointing at how to perceive reality.
A blurry, soft poem, where the surface is not clear. The vision will disappear, like life itself: it`s over in a moment. And still: The moment are life itself!
Soft Poetry acknowledged the vulnerability in our life: only one breath devide life and death. That’s why we need to remember how to breath, how to see, how to listen, again and again.
