What seems logical and meaningful to one can be the opposite to others. Lise was always fascinated by “the real”. This is what she makes film about, makes games about and photographs. How we make sense even with only glimpses of elements, originated from all kinds of places and experiences. The stories and images we have in our heads are truly our own, until we show them and find out that our unique expression can also mean something to others. I don’t think you were the same and now I wonder was I? is a reflection on a relationship that changed. Lise wonders why.

The book was shortlisted for the prestigious photobook dummy award, Kassel Dummy Award 2019.
