What is it that I am looking at? And what do I see? These questions are at the core of my work. I doubt the things I see and I want to go beyond what we think we see. At the same time, I know that there is something special when you really look into the common frames of everyday. That is why I focus on capturing the everyday which is near to me, which I think I know and understand; my direct surroundings. Be it my children, my brother, my dog but just as well the places life takes me or the common surroundings of my home. For me, photography equals waiting for what is to come, waiting for that we don't yet know or see in a world which I thought I knew. - Caroline Kirst
