我捕捉到了意大利瘋人院黑暗而神秘的歷史

我捕捉到了意大利瘋人院黑暗而神秘的歷史

"As soon as the patient passes the internment wall, he enters a new dimension of emotional emptiness ([...])" — Franco Basaglia (Italian psychiatrist, 1924-1980).

“一旦病人通過了拘留墻，他就進入了一個新的情感空虛的維度(……)”- Franco Basaglia(意大利精神病學家，1924-1980)。

It seems strange to me to write that, but mental illness has been with me all my life. I grew up in Haar, a Munich suburb. A tranquil and beautiful place yet one that accommodates one of the largest psychiatric institutions in Germany. A beautiful area with old Art Nouveau buildings but also with a cruel dark past, because in World War II euthanasia was practiced here.

對我來說，這樣寫似乎很奇怪，但精神疾病伴隨了我一生。我在慕尼黑郊區(qū)哈爾長大。一個寧靜而美麗的地方，卻容納著德國最大的精神病院之一。這是一個美麗的地方，有古老的新藝術派建筑，但也有殘酷黑暗的過去，因為在第二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間安樂死就在這里實行。

Having this in mind, my curiosity for the background of psychiatric institutions was awakened. When I visited one of these former institutions in Italy for the first time in 2013 and learned more about the sometimes cruel conditions, I realized that I wanted to photograph these places.

有了這一點，我對精神病院的背景產(chǎn)生了好奇。2013年，當我第一次去意大利參觀這些曾經(jīng)的建筑時，我了解到了更多關于這些有時很殘酷的條件，我意識到我想要拍攝這些地方。
