Each and Every Part in Between


Each and Every Part in Between examines the relationship between public and private identities and the circulation of the snapshot. Through the use of collage techniques, the work deals with the understanding of online profiles as a place where personal interests and social interactions are stored and recorded. The basis for the work is an extensive collection of images sourced from the unlimited flow of selfies and mobile phone uploads on social media. The day-to-day photos, cut into ever smaller fragments, serve as a color palette and brush stroke in the digital composition. Countless fleeting moments of strangers are transformed into a collective portrait. In their totality, the photographic artifacts expand their original purpose and enable new perspectives.

Imprint 


The book comprises a collection of concepts about the way we leave an imprint and how we can be recognized both by another human and by a machine. Thereby the work visualizes moments of unease when clear outlines dissolve and common structures disappear. Photographs combined with images assembled from books about medicine, anatomy, and geography and are collaged around the readability and fixation of a person. The book contains embossed images and a foldable glossary about specific terms which have been of importance during the artistic research. Accompanied by the images is an extract of a conversation taken from a scientific study about prosopagnosia. Shown fragmented on blank pages, the study results transform into a poem.
