Portraits were seen between the images
Series 2
“The between-bodies is their images’ taking-place. The images are not likenesses, still less phantoms or fantasms. It’s how bodies are offered to one another, it’s being born unto the world, the setting on edge, the setting into glory of limit and radiance. A body is an image offered to other bodies, a whole corpus of images stretched from body to body (…)” (Jean-Luc Nancy, Corpus)
These images are made through a photographic process that consists of a single photograph – a single exposure without any layering or montage. The exposure is variably lengthened, rendering elements of duration and articulation visible within the picture.
The initial edit from the images captured within each encounter is made by me, but the final selections are discussed with each participant, with widely varying levels of intervention and control. All published images are subject to their review.
