"nail"

polaroid printed on aluminium, stump

"Nail" Is it a nail or just the image of a nail?

I was interested in exploring the relationship of pairing an image with an object.

The moment the nail - embodying a relic - gets photographed, it transforms into something else.
Penetrating the stump’s surface, it evokes invisible emotions and tensions; only to become a tipping point between object, sculpture and photography.
Concurrent dissolving the representational character of the “photograph” it is morphing by being re-photographed into something invisible and imaginary.
