Back to my reality

View over the building of the closed emergency psychiatric ward of Zurich University Hospital, Switzerland. Zurich, Switzerland, 14 August 2018...During the course of a year-long project about bipolar disorder, I was once embedded in the team of the emergency ward of a very large psychiatry hospital. This ward was closed and some patients denied the right to go out, often for their own safety. This view from outside, through a barrier, had the metaphoric element that my world was separated from thiers since I could come and go as I pleased...Taken as I was embedded in the unit. Photographer did not influence the scene in any way, nor gave directions to anyone.
