2023/24 WS This project intends to make the viewer question their own assumptions about places and how meaning is created and understood through photography. All pictures presented are pictures of kitchen objects, but the viewer is tricked into seeing architecture or landscapes due to the way of photography.
A project made in the course
in situ
In 1974, French writer Georges Perec spent three days observing Place Saint-Sulpice, a public square, in Paris. While doing so, he took notes, about events and non-events – the whole idea was an experiment to capture a particular place in a literary and experimental way. Places are the visible manifestation of complex social interdependencies, which, beyond the obvious function of a place, provides information about its history and its relationship to the present, e.g. about its creation, preservation, destruction or appropriation, about ownership and power.
