Zwischen den Jahren by Valentin Goppel
On New Years Eve in 2020, Valentin Goppel began to photograph his friends and acquaintancesin an attempt to both process and represent the disorientation he felt during the time of Covid.Through taking pictures of his friends he found a way to deal with the state of uncertainty. It wasn'tdifficult for him to explain to them the pictures he was looking for--they were all in the middle ofthe same situation and felt connected in a state of limbo.The book's title Zwischen den Jahren, describes the time between Christmas and New Year--thetime between years. It acts as a metaphor to explain the period of transition between child andadulthood, in addition to the sense of suspended time or paralysis between before the Covidpandemic and an unknown future.
