/14 Portraits

JH Engström

Shelter

JH Engströms photographs are
a remarkable document about
women of our time.

These faces – they ask
no questions.

Look at the rooms – think
about possessions.

These photographs tell me
how sad it is. It is mostly
about the courage to survive.

A glimmer of hope despite of
it. I can see it because the
photographer cares.

Robert Frank

The photographs are taken from JH Engström first book SHELTER (Bokförlaget DN, 1997)
