Teen Snapshots - Made between 1996 and 2003, these photographs were taken during my adolescence in the late Yugoslav context of the 1990s, using a simple point-and-shoot analog camera. At a time before mobile phones and self-documentation, I was often the only one taking pictures—moving through friendships, parties, and everyday moments with a camera that stayed close to the body.

Driven by proximity rather than intention, I photographed what was closest—friends, gestures, moments of tension, boredom, and intimacy—often using flash as a direct, almost confrontational tool.

The work operates between documentation and intrusion, where photographing becomes inseparable from being present. Today, the series functions as a specific archive of a shared time, while also revealing the foundations of my practice—where closeness, vulnerability, and risk continue to shape the image.
