Transparence

The series Transparence shows a series of portraits shot as if they were passport images, blown up to a large scale and printed on fragile almost transparent paper. They are viewable from all angles and play in the wind floating in the space, emphasising the fragile identities and ephemeral nature of identity and existence.

What aspects of an individual, of a character, of an identity are visible through the way they are staring at you? How much or how little we see of the individual, is up to the viewer’s own background and interpretation. By recreating the neutrality of a passport photo, we see that the attempt at neutrality fails.
