Publisher Note
A series of found polaroid photographs seen from the rear and presented as abstract objects. Polaroids have an inbuilt ‘frame’ within which the picture plane sits, these photographs have been removed from their frames and stuck in an album. Subsequently removed, the damage caused by this process is revealed as are the hand written captions describing places and dates. Rather than showing the people and places photographed they now ‘testify to time’s relentless melt’ (Susan Sontag).
A meditation on the idea of photography and memory.
