Mal de Mer explores the theme of adolescence as a phase of life during which we are confronted by personal issues for the first time, issues that, according to the artist’s vision, often remain anchored in our lives even once we have moved on to adulthood, continuing to shape and influence it.

The project is set in Lithuania, a former Soviet country with a profoundly scarred political past and the highest suicide rate in Europe.

Under an intense gaze, the subjects portrayed appear to be overflowing with questions, fears and doubts, their thoughts racing at top speed. Claudio Majorana’s attention is attracted by moments when, intent on investigating their inner selves, the protagonists of his photographs discover answers they are also struggling to formulate, trapped by insecurity. In the timeless journey of self-expression, feeling free to share our own truth and reveal ourselves to others is both the hardest struggle and the most sublime achievement.
