If you lose your job, do you also lose your identity? That was a question that Pelle Kronstedt took as a starting point for photographing “representatives” of the most “typical” group of unemployed people in each of the EU’s 15 member countries. 13 of these participants are under the age of 20. With its stark images, this book becomes a poignant pictorial exposé on the culture of unemployment shaking the foundations of society. This investigative visual study is also a subjective document of our times, revealing personal fates otherwise hidden by statistics.
