KLOSS Thiemo

Dark Blue

Allemagne

2017Jury

With his Dark Blue series, Thiemo Kloss visualises transformations and changes that shape society. His images offer a personal point of view in which collective consciousness, data, online behaviour, and computer usage are contemplated against the backdrop of transparency, anonymity and desintegration. Each image is constructed out of numerous cut out vertical lines, derived from photographs of one and the same person in different positions. By first painstakingly arranging the lines per shot, he creates a set of more or less transparent images, which are subsequently slid into each other.
