For theEMoSEE project, he collected images from the family album, took photos during difficult times and staged a photographic scene with a counsellor who represented his father, to help him come to terms with his feelings towards him. At the exhibition opening at the Tunnel Grund, he said that the project had helped him overcome his depression.
