Antimatter  The Weight Of The World lyrics : Mick Moss Save me, I'm in a sea of beings And there's no deny - the waves are holding me under I'm drowning in a thousand faces Alien expressions over and over again I'm trying to scream but I can't exhale The world seems to spin as I'm left on this square With no will to hold on Am I the only one crushed by the weight of the world? Save me... I think I've swallowed more than I can comprehend A soul laid low A soul has lost its faith again, wide awake in this hole A maggot on a plate again, wide awake in this hole A soul has lost its faith again I've lost myself too long Am I the only one crushed by the weight of the world?

rain is falling.. small drops are covering my silence… I feel them slowly falling down my face.. I feel the sorrow that follows them.. they stop shortly on my lips.. I can taste the bitterness of this night.. covering my thoughts like a dark fog.. night is so beautiful..  drops are falling on my hand.. I feel the touch I felt once.. it’s warm..it’s painful… all the memory is frozen in those drops.. oh..night is so beautiful.. dark clouds are hiding the moon.. I see the drop on the floor.. it’s shining from the light in my room.. looks like a mirror.. I see my tears in these drops.. oceans are in them..rivers..lakes.. I will climb the mountain to see this beauty..  night is so beautiful.. dark beautiful sorrow..

can you hear the sound of this deafening silence ?.. digging through my skin.. somewhere deep …very deep …from within.. I can only stay numb… look through you.. just as you are looking through me.. there are only shadows left.. and echoes of your voice.. dust is covering your words.. and indifference taking over my  thoughts.. everyone took one piece of me.. broke what was strong in me… so now look..just look and see.. how emptiness can set you free.. and show you a cold face... of your destiny.

“I am painting what touches my soul, brings tears to my eyes and ignites my power to create.  All I want is to touch you too. So feel with me. Let me take you on a ride that will take you closer to your heart and then we will...dance.”  – Mirpi    

This series of photographs is inspired by the tragic destinies of women who are victims of human trafficking. Some statistics say there are more than 20 million girls enslaved all over the world which I believe is not the real number and that there are a lot more. This number actually means nothing..if just ONE person, women, child or any human goes through hell like this it’s enough to shout about it and try to stop it in any way we can. Those invisible humans are hidden from our everyday lives and treated as though they are property. I feel deeply disturbed by that fact and I had a need to show this truth through my photographs. I know it doesn’t change anything but maybe it will at least make people question their values, remind the once that lost them that these girls are our sisters, daughters, friends, someone we know or used to know.. THE GIRL IN A PHOTO COULD BE ANYONE ..so we should all ask ourselves what is this world we live in, open our eyes and don’t look a...

I am loosing You..    but you know I have given myself to you, my love... You can crush me, break me, swallow me..   and leave me to die.. but…please … don’t let me drown in my own Why...
