"But your baby is fine.", is what I heard a lot after I gave birth to my first child, and of course that is what was important. It was not an overly dramatic birth, actually it was quite the norm. So maybe I should just shut up and be happy because my baby is fine. Maybe its all because my generation is not used to those kind of natural experiences. Nevertheless, I needed to work through it, feel and understand what happened there. So I began to photograph myself and relive the hours of birth.
"But your baby is fine" is a series of selfportraits shot at home in the quarantine time.
