Outtake

Top-down camera perspective. Lateral lights. An object in the center.
A collectible. Military equipment. Stamps. Coins. Envelopes. Old love letters. Various documents and identification cards from earlier times. Family photos. Collectible albums. Zeppelin fragments. Cups. Jewels.


Outtake shadows the photographer through repetitive procedural sequences in an archival setting: unwrapping, spreading out, dusting off, triggering the shutter, repacking, and stamping.


The series deliberately breaks away from clinical object photography, initiating discussions on partially tabooed topics such as origin and legitimacy by delving into individual values. The hand is the medaitor, who holds the object, places it and passes it forward.
