Diorama Map series is ongoing and will be developed in cities all over the world in the future. ![]() Therefore, every single element amongst the enormous mound of pieces reflects my own act of photographic creation itself. The Diorama Map, which is almost a bird's eye view of the city, is not a precise google map, but presents the key elements of the city in a form closer to my own memory and observation.The order of age within the family has simply been reversed – Stenram has become the oldest member of her family and her father has become the youngest.Ī Diorama Map takes the following method Walking around the chosen city on foot shooting from various location with film pasting and arranging of the re-imagined city from my memory as layered icons of the city. Excess, ambiguity and timelessness are crucial in my corpus. I reinterpret these chunks of reality, bestowing on them a different function to the one envisaged by the original architect for the real building. After being reworked in an endless digital mirror game, a kaleidoscopic representation of this delirious city is born. The result, often erroneously identified with a collage made out of several images, always originates in a single image that I still take with the same analogue camera I have always used. In order to recreate each one of their buildings I have borrowed architectural scraps taken during my trips to Paris, Moscow, Naples, New York City, Shanghai, Barcelona and Vienna. Project Art for Venice is part of a five-year work in progress: the building of an excessive, unreal, out-of-time town called Delirious City.

It captures a theme of being empty and gone. It’s a shattered doorway in the middle of a disaster. ![]() This photo is one of my favorites that Clarance took. It’s interesting to look at and has a great depth of field.Ĭlarence John Laughlin: Doorway To A Lost World old and hollow architecture of New Orleans, in which he shot this at. I really enjoy this picture of his because it captures the rustic. What i caught was that the fake plastic face represents the old, dead, her and a new person is starting to show.
