This series is entirely photographed from the screen and digitally composed. I create figures by assembling „new“ entities from a variety of photographs. This game can get very rough and is often an act of appropriation. I snatch my prey from the fleeting net, get the best pieces and appropriate them. What was foreign a short time before is now mine, because I have taken it apart and put it back together again. I make it permanent.

Making pictures is play.
Play is anarchy.
Anarchy is freedom.
Everything else is politics..
Questions arise:
How does my brain identify a face, a person? How does a computer identify a face? Where are the limits of recognition? How does an overall impression emerge although many different individual parts are to be seen? How do culture and experience shape the pattern of recognition? Does one recognize the „constructed persons“ as a unit again, does it begin to „live“?
It is these stimuli that keep me going.
