Title: Time Travelers

Subtitle: My inner child and me - a documentary from individual

Blurb/Shorttext:

This project is about the discussion of life plans, one's own life - and the way in which the depiced persons deal with and communicate them. The three part-project consists of a children's photo, a handwritten letter to the child, and a current photo. They tell individual life stories. That creates a stage for every protagonist. "The special auality of Petra Gerwers' work "Time Travelers" lies in the sensitization for this process of self-discovery. Wolfgang Zurborn "However, I am happy to admit that Petra Gerwer's "Time Travelers" is one of the few artistic projects that has touched me so much that I decided, without thinking too much, to get involved in her initiative. I can't give a reasonable reason for that. But this shows me that the photographer has hit a certain point, and I can imagine that the passengers who, like me, set out on the journey into their own selves felt the same way. In this I see the specific quality of the project, and I therefore wish "Time Travelers" the viewers and readers in particular, who have preserved a weakness for the extraordinary.(Klaus Honnef)
