Dinge

Photographed, a familiar thing can become strange. The image holds not what the thing had always seemed, but what it briefly became: some­thing harder to name, no longer insisting on itself.

These photographs are a collection of such moments, built over ten years: not of things themselves, but of their appearances flowing into each other.
