45 describes a sequence of image fragments that emphasize and contrast the
human presence in their physical environment. On closer inspection,
The viewer becomes aware that all the images are taken through a
train window. The photographer's journey, which takes him from Ukraine to Oslo in
passing through present-day Europe, is inspired by train journeys made by
relatives in 1945 and 1978, leading them to death or freedom. At this stage of the
three trips, each member of the family turned 45. The story of the book brings
in question the issue of forced immigration within the borders of the
past and present of Europe. Eight months after the author's return in 2013,
A new conflict has broken out in the Donetsk region, leading to a war in
course.
