Written on the back of this work is: “One of the absurd things about photography is the amount of pictures one takes that end up in a box, never to be seen again. Nearly all of the images I've ever taken have ended up unseen in a box. I took this image in Abkhazia in 2005, while I was working on my book Satellites. It shows girls doing their hair in front of a bombed-out apartment block. It was a sweet little human moment. But later that same evening I took another image of an old woman walking in front of the same building that was slightly more dramatic. And just like that, the image of the four girls had to go.” — Jonas Bendiksen
