Nowadays there are divorces in increasing numbers. Gábor Máté delved into the questions of when and why spouses end up in divorce, when it is better to divorce than to save a relationship and what the psychological effects of divorce are. According to the well renowned psychologist J. Bowlby, the greatest trauma we experience in our lives occurs during divorce. Gábor Máté’s photographs represent some people who have gone through different psychological processes during their divorce. He has taken portraits of them, based on interviews with them, and still-lives that express their feelings in a symbolic, metaphorical way.
