Submission Photography

Tautoloigcal

This series plays with the mechanics of analogue photography, long exposure and a repetitive photographing of the same image. The technique causes images to fade, evolve and re-express themselves into falsehoods, ambiguity or nothingness. By questioning our trust in the truthfulness of photography, ‘Tautological’ demonstrated how often it is just a vehicle of false documentation.

Moreover, some works explore the experience of memory itself. The past, now, doesn't exist except as a form of mental time travel, resuscitation of a bygone image. The more we recall moments in life and the further we get from its source, the more memories fade into vague outlines and rewritten pasts.

All works are shot on 35mm film
