Synergy

Synergy is a series of photographs that extracts fragments from everyday banal life and utilizes photography’s power to create an alternative meaning. By framing fixed information on the street with unaware pedestrians it creates a somewhat humorous and open-ended one-liner that only serves the purpose of bringing out the heh’s and huh’s in the viewer. The photographs violently exploit and manipulate its subjects and place them in story snippets they quite possibly never wanted to be a part of. However, the viewer does not only react to the subject but the core of each photograph is found in the split-second juxtaposition of the two, “the fixed and the living.”
