Oblivion 1996, Serie of 16 Photos

Awarded Fotoii Essay 2007

STATEMENT

This set of photographs are non digital Black and White silver gelatin prints mechanically manipulated in the darkroom) The serie was shot here in Switzerland and apart from its apparent aesthetic aspects, my concept was to demonstrate that photography can completely change the reality and falsify one's perception of the truth (just by using a piece of cloth I changed an European environment and  turned it into a typical oriental scene.
