Déchirement
By Bahar Samadi (Archive in progress) Everything on these photographs are ruinous: the girl, the hands, the sky, the shadows and the vase on the table. In an equal way, they are all left in a multiplied oblivion. Evidently there was nothing left to be recognized. God of images denies their existence; prohibiting any reality, even the paper bodies: all is torn, and this state can breach the reality of all of these images and erase all of their pictorial contents. Edges This time, new contents are appearing on the edges. Edges show inaccessibility. The ability to be situated in the proximity of the others, confirms the fact that this is only an undetectable piece of paper in a crumpled world; The possibility to inject the tiniest flares of life in the exact moment before they get torn away. Urging a probable narrative to momentarily embrace their existence in their last struggles. This struggle is ceremonial through which, places and subjects become factual in the course of time; a ceremony that makes the photographs real, then teleports them back to their forbidden universe - as if they never existed. |
