"Unbecoming 05 (Fault)."
Description
"Each composite layers photographs made in different places and different times into a single frame, refusing the idea that a site belongs to one moment or one meaning. The industrial structures, overgrown thresholds, and weathered surfaces that recur across the series are not ruins to be mourned but archives still in use - holding within their fabric the overlapping histories of the people and communities that passed through them. In this sense the work engages directly with what the European collection seeks to trace: the continuities and disruptions that bind place to memory, the networks of exchange that make belonging not a fixed condition but an ongoing negotiation. The body in these images does not stand before history - it dissolves into it, becomes part of the same sediment. That, I think, is what it means to inhabit a shared European space: not to possess it, but to be changed by it."Try it!
