"In 2017, my grandmother passed away following a brief and intense illness. As a tribute to her and my childhood, I walked through her house for the last time on the day of her funeral. I photographed moments and objects that had left a lasting impression on me as a child. In a sense a part of my childhood died with her."

"A state of melancholy, loneliness, and profound longing, the Portuguese term Saudade resists a simple, straightforward definition. In 2016, Hamburg-based artist Jakob Sinn embarked on a personal exploration of this complex emotion in Lisbon. The resulting work, a small and intimate book, offers a journey into the essence of Saudade, not through a literal explanation, but through an evocative portrayal that allows the reader to experience its emotional depth."
