Monolith
The photographic series with the working title "Monolith" explores visual perception through a photographic installation by using and incorporating specially cut mirrors that are set up in the image motif to depict "external" content in photographs. The mirrors set up in the image motif are cut in such a way that they present the appearance of an optical "square" standing parallel to the image surface. The project explores ambiguity and emergence through repetition and variation, developing forms that do not follow any logical criteria but are based only on subjective associations and formal parallels that stimulate the viewer to make new personal associations.
The photographs never show the complete structure of the work, and the abstraction applied is intended to create a moment for the viewer that leads him or her in circles between acceptance and refusal. The work is meant to be based on formal associations that open up a unique poetic vein. Multi-layered images are created in which the fragility and instability of our seemingly secure reality is questioned. The results are deconstructed to the extent that meaning shifts and the possibilities for interpretation become multiple.
