Kristian Skylstad’s photo series Sighs was photographed in Silesia, a historic region in East Central Europe. Skylstad has taken pictures from the Polish part of the area, where German bombs killed a large number of civilians and destroyed buildings and infrastructure during World War II. In addition the area has many ruins from the Soviet era, abandoned factories and vacated private homes. Skylstad has been preoccupied with finding the mental state that still prevails in these places with links to the sombre past.
