Juan Curto "I used to be free I used to be seventeen Follow my shadow Around your corner I used to be seventeen Now you're just like me" Sharon van Etten
Two friends sit atop the roof of one of their houses. They are surrounded by snacks, slushies, and musical instruments. The afternoon Summer sun melts into them as they embrace the day starting to end. They're seventeen years old on the brink of major changes in their life, but yet they find a moment to sit still and breathe. There is peace that can be found in the inevitable and unending change. "Sick of Seventeen" is a part of the 76 image photo series "Prologue" that investigates and discusses the importance of interpersonal relationships while coming of age.
